    AZERBAIJANI REPUBLIC DAY TO BE MARKED IN ISRAEL

    Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
    April 27 2007

    Israeli-Azerbaijan International Association (IAIA) is planning to hold
    solemn event on May 28 - Republic day of Azerbaijan, the vice-president
    of organization Alex Shapiro told the APA Israeli bureau.

    He stated that holiday event will be held in Israeli Knesset dedicated
    to the 89th anniversary the first democratic Islamic republic in the
    East on May 24. Israeli-Azerbaijan International Association promised
    to do all organizational works as there is not Azerbaijani Embassy
    in Israel. Israeli President, Prime Minister, parliamentarians and
    foreign diplomats are expected to attend the event.

    Shapiro commenting on Armenians' marking the anniversary of so-called
    genocide in Israel, said he expresses his solidarity with the official
    position of the country regarding this issue. He said that Jews were
    subject to genocide by fascists in the 20th century and Holocaust
    can not be compared with any genocide in the history of mankind.

    "It is unacceptable to identify Armenians and Jews in genocide issue,"
    he stressed.
