“Today, Azerbaijan has become a venue hosting international events and discussion of topical global issues. I believe that the issues discussed at the Fifth Baku International Humanitarian Forum will be useful for the world,” Director General for International Relations at the National Congress of Argentina Juan de Dios Cincunegui said in an interview with AZERTAC.

Edward Prescott, who received Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics in 2004, has hailed the economic reforms in Azerbaijan. He visited the Center for Economic Reforms Analysis and Communication as part of his participation in the 5th Baku International Humanitarian Forum.

The Armenian side continues to violate the truce with Azerbaijan, and this hinders the country’s citizens, living near the contact line, from exercising some of their rights.

Holding such events, as the Baku International Humanitarian Forum, creates good conditions to discuss important issues of humanity, said Michael Worbs, chairperson of the Executive Board of the UNESCO (The United Nations Scientific, Educational and Cultural Organization).

The 5th Baku International Humanitarian Forum has received global recognition for a relatively short time, according to the letter of Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed to the participants of the forum.
