According to a report by ANI Armenian Research Center editor Tatul Hakobyan, Bourdain is traveling with a film crew to produce a segment on the region for his CNN television show “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown.” In Shushi, Artsakh, an interview and lunch were held at the Jdrduz canyon, where Bourdain “enjoyed a spread of ‘jingalov hats,’ ‘shila,’ ‘khorovatz,’ homemade Armenian yogurt, and mulberry and cornelian cherry vodka.”

    We cannot exagerate the importance of this event, with regard to the international recognition of Artsakh.

    A big thank you to Anthony Bourdain. He is truly taking a stand, here.

    (The fact that he and his crew went to Artsak by air, in a Russian helicopter, is also very significant… )
