    AFFA EXPRESSES RESOLUTE PROTEST AGAINST FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP IN
    SO-CALLED `NAGORNY KARABAKH REPUBLIC'
    [August 02, 2004, 22:43:03]

    Azerbaijan Association of Football Federations /AFFA/ has issued a
    statement expressing resolute protest against football championship
    started in the so-called `Nagorny Karabakh Republic'. AzerTAj
    accepted the statement that says:

    `Internet websites of Armenian and Russian media informed of the
    football championship commenced on August 1 in the territory of
    Nagorny Karabakh Republic'. Nine local teams and one team from
    Armenia will be participating at the illegal championship.

    As FIFA and UEFA full member, AFFA expresses resolute protest against
    the notorious `Nagorny Karabakh Republic football championship' and
    participation of the team from Armenian town Horadis. Nagorny
    Karabakh is occupied Azerbaijani territory. Football clubs of this
    region may only compete in the championship of Azerbaijan.

    AFFA believes that FIFA and UEFA will prevent this championship
    initiated by the Armenian separatists.
