According to the press release of the State Committee, Elshad Iskandarov announced plans to hold similar conferences in all regions of the country. He also stated the need to strengthen moral and national values.
He spoke about increased attempts to radicalize the Islamic religion in the world, necessitating activation of work on religious education. The head of the state committee also touched on the involvement of religious groups and believers in the political process. Internal and external forces are trying to violate stability in the country, and to use believers in their game. "We believe that believers will not allow this," he said.
