ArmInfo. The Foreign Ministry of Armenia presented the details of the exchange of journalists between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
So, the press secretary of the Armenian Foreign Ministry, Anna Naghdalyan, in particular, stated: "On November 17-21, an exchange of groups of journalists took place: media representatives of Armenia and Artsakh visited Azerbaijan, and media representatives from Azerbaijan visited Armenia and Artsakh. The program was prepared and implemented during direct coordination of the personal representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office and with the participation of the relevant departments of Armenia, Artsakh and Azerbaijan."
It should be noted that the visit of Armenian and Azerbaijani journalists was held in a confidential atmosphere according to an agreement reached in advance. Only at the end of last week, the US mission to the OSCE welcomed the trip on its Twitter page. "Measures such as this exchange prepare the population for peace and reduce tensions," the US Permanent Mission said in a statement.
It should be noted that Armenian journalists who visited Baku on Facebook shared photos and impressions of their visit to Azerbaijan. Thus, the political commentator of "Shant" TV channel Artem Yerkanyan generally spoke positively about the trip, expressing the conviction that the visit was useful from the point of view of creating a complete picture of the public's perception of the current situation.
