Un-presidential comments from Azerbaijan's president and regrettable but predictable behavior by his countrymen have led officials in Yerevan to a decision that places Armenia under a spotlight that has turned its glare from the frivolity of Euro-"culture" and has made politics out of pop.
Armenia's decision to boycott Eurovision 2012 because the international song competition is being held in Baku, Azerbaijan – while exercising reasonable cautions for security reasons — appears to be shortsighted, and driven by epidermal emotion rather than careful consideration.
Last week authorities officially pulled Armenia out of the contest, and in so doing risk appearing incapable of distinguishing social competition and war-hungry aggression, from sport and politics.
