On March 7, an international conference on the topic of “Models of Multiculturalism” was held at the European Press Center in Brussels.

\n
\u201cWe carry out our activities, both religious and humanitarian, in an atmosphere of freedom, while enjoying the trust and support of the relevant authorities and public organizations.<\/div>\n
The Catholic Church, to the best of its ability and authority, tries to contribute to the development of society, to pass to the new generations positive moral and spiritual values and the desire for peace and creation. We also, together with our brothers and sisters from other religious communities, primarily Christian ones, try to convey objective information about Azerbaijan, which, unfortunately, often becomes the object of prejudice and unfair stereotypes. I am personally pleased that Mr. President and the authorities understand the importance of preserving traditional values in society – including religious ones – and that new generations are intentionally raised in this spirit.<\/div>\n
We look to the future with great hope and thank the Lord for being able to serve Him and the people of Azerbaijan, sharing the treasure of faith and the Gospel with all who sincerely seek God.\u201d \u2013 said Bishop Vladimir Fekete.<\/div>\n
