The official newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the cohabitation of different peoples in Azerbaijan. As an example, they show the village Slavyanka in the Gadabay district, in which "tolerance and multiculturalism thrive." The author recalls that the village was founded in 1837 by Russians, who belonged to a religious movement Doukhobors and were exiled from Russia. They recognize only God and do not recognize the church. Currently, the number of inhabitants of the village is 4,300 people. It is in this village that the mineral water Slavyanka famous in the country is produced. The factory for its production employs 50 villagers. 1,260 people have their own plots of land. During the summer season more than 4,000 tourists rest there. Preference is given to "domestic tourism". The cost of living a single day is 10-30 AZN. In the village there are a lot of mixed families, and that tradition continues.

A member of the Coordinating Center of the National Council of Democratic Forces, Ibrahim Ibrahimli recalls the referendum in 2009, which he regards as "the start of a transition to a constitutional monarchy." "The authorities want to usurp all powers up until the crisis has not gone deep at all," he said.
