Baku, Azerbaijan, March 10
By Anakhanum Khidayatova - Trend:
The Fourth Global Baku Forum is going to be something like political, geopolitical Davos, former prime minister of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Zlatko Lagumdzija, told reporters in Baku on the sidelines of the forum March 10.
If Davos is about economy, then the Baku Forum is slowly and slightly becoming a geopolitical Davos, he added.
"Every year, I have been coming here from the very beginning and it is incredible that this forum is becoming a place with not only more people, [but] more relevant people," said Lagumdzija.
The 4th Global Baku Forum titled "Towards a Multipolar World" kicked off March 10.
The Forum has been organized by the Nizami Ganjavi International Center in partnership with the Interaction Council, the Club of Madrid, Library of Alexandria, the Club of Rome and World Academy of Science and Culture.
Over 300 delegates from 53 countries attend the forum.
The two-day forum will focus on topical issues such as the role of interreligious dialogue in conflict prevention, migration, multiculturalism, integration and global security. The forum's agenda also includes prospects for energy and global management issues.
