The Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan came to a triumphant close last night, as reported by Trend.az in Sweden wins the Eurovision 2012 Song contest in Baku.

We watched this competition on TV last night, together with 120 million other viewers, not just in Europe, but around the world, and came away greatly impressed by the city of Baku, the country of Azerbaijan, and the people of Azerbaijan, whose impressive Eurovision presentation showed the "trend" of our times toward emerging nations in the East.

It is especially significant to see that a country like Azerbaijan is oriented in part toward the West, while maintaining its own more Eastern traditions.
