The existing experience gives reason to say that regardless of citizenship, necessary measures are being taken to ensure the safety of all participants in the international events held in Azerbaijan. For this reason, during the period when the athletes representing Armenia are participating in the Baku 2015 First European Games in a fully secure environment, the statement of Minister of Education and Science of Armenia is surprising and regrettable. As it is known, the Regulations for the 47th International Chemistry Olympiad don`t intend to provide specific security guarantees for the participating countries. This rule is applied to the International Chemistry Olympiad to be held in Baku with the organizational support of Baku branch of the Moscow State University on July 20-29 of this year. It is the right of any country to choose to participate or withdraw from participation in each international competition. It is not the first time that Armenian official circles give way to abuses on the issue of participating in various competitions. The attempts to politicize this competition, which was attended by students, are regrettable. The Republic of Azerbaijan completely fulfills all obligations for the implementation of the 47th International Chemistry Olympiad.
