“We are proud of our religious diversity, which does not depend on any political conjuncture. Muslim, Jewish, Christian, we are all one family. It’s part of our DNA,” he said.
Amirbayov condemned the decision of the US Commission for International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) and the US State Department to include Azerbaijan in a "special watch list" in connection with religious freedom.
