Swedish ambassador to Azerbaijan Mikael Eriksson met this country’s Eurovision-2012 representative Loreen in the restaurant situated in Villa Petroleum yesterday.
The source told that the meeting hadn’t have only an acquaintance character. The ambassador asked Loreen to sound the political statements and make calls concerning Azerbaijan during her performance at Eurovision stage, but the singer turned down the suggestion saying that Eurovision is a cultural event and didn’t want to be a tool in the political processes.
According to information, Public Chamber’s representatives Isa Gambar and Ali Karimli also participated in the meeting. The source said that "the main reason of the ambassador’s inviting the oppositionists was to give a chance to Loreen to hear realities from the locals".
But the meeting ended with an open text of the signer that she wouldn’t intervene in politics.
Some international and local organizations, as well as leaders of opposition parties made statements on the eve of Eurovision-2012 Song Contest that they would call the contest’s singers to make political statements and support the democracy in Azerbaijan.
