Eurovision enabled Azerbaijan to showcase its potential, Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesman Elman Abdullayev believes.
"Azerbaijan as any country in the world tries to provide detailed information about itself to the international community, and the Eurovision Song Contest has become a good opportunity for Azerbaijan in this sense," Abdullayev told Trend.
He said most of the guests visited Azerbaijan for the first time, have witnessed the rapid development of the country and got acquainted with its rich culture and history. In addition, Azerbaijan's guests felt hospitality of Azerbaijani people, he said.
According to Abdullayev, holding the contest in Azerbaijan created a good opportunity to attract tourists to the country in the future. "Guests of Baku will talk about this wonderful country - Azerbaijan after returning to their home countries, which will lead to a growth in tourist flow in the future," he added.
