yep thats true. Thats like Russia today showing monuments that symbolize and celebrate their illegal occupation of Crimea or Abkhazia or Ossetia! It was very unethical and disgusting :/
@@nazrinsadiqova1878 cutting water and electricity supplies to the civil population of Crimea is unethical and disgusting. Bombing Tskhinval was disgusting. Azerbaijanian soldiers destroying ancient Armenian churches in Artsakh are disgusting.
@@kiparis777 Churches in Karabakh are old Albanian churches. It has nothing to do with the Armenians. The Armenians simply confiscated these churches. During the occupation, 65 of 67 mosques in Karabakh were destroyed. Not only mosques, but entire cities were destroyed. The city of Aghdam was completely destroyed. This city is called the Hiroshima of the Caucasus. It was also destroyed in Gabriel, Fuzuli, Kubadli, Zangilan, Kelbecer, Lachin and other regions. You are biased and ignoring the facts.

I love these postcards but they made a mistake about armenia because of monument of Karabakh(Artsak) Karabakh is Azerbaijan!! Our soldier liberated their lands

No, the postcard was changed. The last "page" originally includes the monument We Are Our Mountains (the big stone head), however in the final they replaced that monument with a tower.
@@leahrowden3939 That's because the monument was situated in Nagorno-Karabakh, a disputed territory claimed by Azerbaijan and currently occupied by separatists. The Armenians later retaliated by having the jury spokesperson Sirusho holding a card with its image and another one looming on her background.
@Melis Tenguvaç Yeah, but it's populated by ethnic Armenians. If Azerbaijan want it back, they must ensure that the people of Nagorno-Karabakh can live in peace without experiencing any discriminated for being Armenian
I like how they incorporated the ethnic music from each country in the postcards too.

Apparently, they made two postcards for Armenia, because the first one included a monument in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
Yep, and then during the voting Armenia retaliated by showing pictures of the monument everywhere! You're fooling nobody Armenia! @@amoureuxolly

Yohanna Is It True?
Why does it seem like the postcards for 2009 are so short?
Actually the proper postcards with participating artists in them had only been making sinde 2010
@@Gumboliniz there's no even a postcard in 2010. No artists as well. It's just maps made of moments and the people waving and whatnot.
Iceland had the best ESC 2009 postcard ever!
I’m sorry, I’m not very good at speaking Russian.
Who is that girl standing there and posing in front of the camera in the beginning of each postcard?!
She is Miss World 2008, Ksenia Sukhinova from Russia.
