Clashes in Russia do not affect Azerbaijanis?

"The situation with interethnic clashes is uneasy, one can give different estimates of these events. I think that one should not rush to unilateral conclusions. For the Russian leadership it is a very serious signal and the authorities will very seriously deal with this problem," Dorokhin told journalists today.

Mass clashes took place in the center of Moscow Dec.11, as a result of which over 30 people were injured. The reason for the rally was the death of a Spartak fan in a scuffle with natives of the North Caucasus. Football fans and nationalist groups took part in the demonstrations. They beat several persons of a non-Slavic appearance.

"Fortunately, this situation doesn't affect the Azerbaijanis, I'm not surprised, as your compatriots behave with dignity in the Russia," Dorokhin said.
