Armenia`s unconstructive position hinders comprehensive cooperation in South Caucasus, Azerbaijan`s consul general in Los Angeles Elin Suleymanov said

Representatives of the Armenian community in California have attempted to stage provocation while Azerbaijan`s consul general in Los Angeles made a speech in the Pacific Club on his country`s role in the South Caucasus region.

The Armenians tried to interrupt the Consul General`s remarks, but failed.

Suleymanov said in his remarks that Azerbaijan was recognized as a tolerant country across the world. He added Azerbaijan was the first secular country in the Muslim world.

The diplomat noted his country had become a regional leader.

He underlined Azerbaijan`s President Ilham Aliyev successfully continues the well-balanced policy founded by national leader Heydar Aliyev.

Suleymanov also said Armenia`s unconstructive position hinders comprehensive cooperation in the South Caucasus. The event was attended by former US ambassador to Azerbaijan Rino Harnish and members of the Azerbaijani and Turkish communities.
