"We thought that young people should not stand aside from the contest. We want to bring everyone to this action group. A demonstration of the capacity of Azerbaijani youth is a main purpose of its creation, young people want not to stay aside from the Eurovision-2012 and be an integral part of this great event. Anyone may join the action group," Seyidzade said.
