The award ceremony caused dissatisfaction among Armenians. Thus, the hanging of the Azerbaijani flag ahead of the Armenian one angered our hostile neighbors. 

They protested against this, citing the fact that the name of our country is in the alphabetical order after Armenia, as well as the fact that Rustam Orujov lost to Ferdinand Karapetyan in the quarterfinals.
