PanARMENIAN.Net - Director General of the Public Television Company (OTV) of Azerbaijan, that was founded yesterday, Ismail Omarov stated that programs in the Armenian language will be aired at the OTV. He added that the final decision over the issue will be passed after a study of the public opinion is held. In case the society supports the idea, in his words, OTV will broadcast a program in Armenian. "Karabakh Armenians are citizens of Azerbaijan. We are going to provide a special status to them. Citizens of Azerbaijan should know about the processes in the country and state development not through hearsay. After they get to know about this development, they will come against Armenian occupation themselves," he said. As I. Omarov noted, programs in Armenian can be aired before settlement of the Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, too, reported IA Regnum.
