    4 Jun 04

    Text of Rasad report by Azerbaijani newspaper Sarq on 4 June headlined
    "No to 'Armenian genocide' claims" and subheaded "Our compatriots
    organized march in Brussels"

    The cultural centre of Azerbaijanis in Europe, the Belgian Ataturk
    centre and the Belgian Turkish Platform staged a joint sanctioned
    march on Gare du Nord Square in Brussels yesterday [3 June].

    Fatma Aliyeva, chairwoman of the cultural centre of Azerbaijanis
    in Europe, has told the Azerbaijani State Committee for Work with
    Azerbaijanis Living Abroad that thousands of people attended the march
    and carried various placards and the Azerbaijani and Turkish flags. The
    placards read "Armenians occupied Karabakh", "Karabakh is Azerbaijan's
    integral part", "We condemn the so-called Armenian genocide and lies",
    and "The so-called Armenian monuments should be removed".

    The march was staged in the area of 5 km between Gare du Nord and Gare
    du Midi Squares. The report says that mainly Azerbaijanis and Turks
    joined the action. Politicians of Turkish origin were also among them.
