Azerbaijan`s Embassy to the Republic of Korea has hosted an event for thirty representatives of Seoul International Women's Association (SIWI) from Korea, China, USA, Canada, Belgium and India.

Azerbaijani ambassador Ramzi Teymurov provided an insight into the country`s history, geographic location, culture, tourism potential as well as the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, and Azerbaijan-Korea bilateral relations. The event also included a question-and-answer session with the ambassador.
