Azerbaijan represented at Bazar International de Luxembourg 

Azerbaijan is being represented with its products at the Bazar International de Luxembourg, Report informs, citing the online newspaper Luxembourg Times.

“The Azerbaijan stand is full to brimming with fresh produce, including pomegranates, quince, and the green, egg-shaped feijoa fruit. There are wines, oils, molasses, and lots of jewelry, which Seymur tells me has been flown in especially for the Bazar,” the newspaper said.

Samir, a young man co-managing the stand, says that when he arrived in Luxembourg, the Bazar was a place to meet and see his fellow countrymen. “When I felt homesick, it was the best place for me to socialize, and I had cravings for all this food,” he said.

Fuad says there are approximately 200 Azerbaijanis living in Luxembourg but that many younger arrivals learn the local language and take citizenship. He’s proud to claim that he was the first Azerbaijani to become Luxembourgish in 2007.

The Azerbaijan stand has invited pianist Isfar Sarabski, winner of the Montreux Jazz Festival, to play several times on Saturday.
