At the September 11 meeting in Oslo (Norway), European Broadcasting Union (EBU) will consider the issue on summoning Azerbaijani citizens voted for Armenian contestants at Eurovision-2009, the official website of the contest reads.
Commenting on the matter, EBU Director General Jean Reveillon said that organization will take into account Azerbaijani side response. “However the freedom to vote for any song except the one of the country where you are watching is one of the cornerstones of the contest.” “Any breach of privacy regarding voting, or interrogation of individuals, is totally unacceptable,” DG added.
NEWS.am has already reported that Ministry of National Security of Azerbaijan (MNS) detects Azerbaijani citizens who voted for Armenia at Eurovision-2009. 43 Azerbaijani citizens voted for Arshakyan sisters (Armenian contestants). MNS summoned all the mentioned and had a short talk of their ‘political correctness’, ‘ethics’ and other paramount issues Azerbaijani should not neglect. But all this is done in the light of “national idea and pride.”
