To Αζερμπαιτζάν φακελώνει μουσικά γούστα
43 people have been interrogated in Azerbaijan for voting for Armenia during the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest.
One of these 43 people said that "the Police were accusing them of "not being patriotic" and "being potential security threats".
Another one defends his choice, "because the Armenian song sounded more Azeri."
A representative from the National Security Ministry said thet "they just wanted to learn why they would vote for Armenia".
Azerbaijan and Armenia fought for the Nagorno-Karabakh region in the 90s, today occupied by Armenian forces. No peace treaty is in vigor yet, but political leaders from both countries accelerated the talks in November 2008.
