Yerevan, 6 February: "Azerbaijan's political hysteria about our
participation in the international tourism market will not be able to
impede the development of tourism in the Nagornyy Karabakh republic
(NKR)," the director of the NKR tourism development agency, Sergey
Shakhverdyan, has told Mediamax.
Commenting on Azerbaijan's protest at the circulation of booklets about
the organization of tours to Nagornyy Karabakh at an international
tourism exhibition in Madrid, Shakhverdyan said that "tourism does
not recognize state borders, and people go where they want along the
route that is convenient to them".
He said that Azerbaijan's attempts to politicize these issues "are
devoid of common sense and will not affect the development of tourism
in Nagornyy Karabakh".
Shakhverdyan recalled that an almost 40-per-cent increase in visits
to Nagornyy Karabakh by foreign tourists is recorded annually.
