    KARABAKH LIBERATION ORGANIZATION INTENDS TO PREVENT FORTHCOMING VISIT OF ARMENIAN REPRESENTATIVES TO BAKU IN SEPTEMBER

    Azerbaijan, Baku /corr. Trend S.Ilhamgizi / The Karabakh Liberation
    Organization (KLO) states that it will prevent the forthcoming visit
    of the Armenian representatives to Baku in September.

    Two Armenian delegations are planning to visit Baku in September. The
    Armenian interior minister or representative of the Ministry is
    expected to attend the meeting of the interior ministers of CIS
    countries on 5-6 September in Baku. In addition, it became known that
    the Armenian wrestlers intend to participate in the world championship
    due on 15-17 September in Baku.

    KLO considers that the visit by the representatives of the occupant
    country to Baku is unacceptable. "Creating conditions for such a
    visit is a contradiction of the national interest of the Government
    of Azerbaijan. We call on the State officials who promise to ensure
    security of the Armenian delegates to appreciate the responsibility
    before the memory of thousands of Azerbaijani martyrs," KLO statement
    says.

    KLO states that they will use every means possible to prevent the
    visit of the Armenian delegates to Baku. "The responsibility of the
    outcome will fall on the Government," the organization stated.

    The conflict between the two countries of South Caucasus began in 1988
    due to territorial claims by Armenia against Azerbaijan. Armenia has
    occupied 20% of the Azerbaijani land including the Nagorno-Karabakh
    region and its seven surrounding Districts. Since 1992, these
    territories have been under the occupation of the Armenian Forces. In
    1994, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement at which time
    the active hostilities ended. The Co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group
    ( Russia, France and USA) are currently holding peaceful negotiations.

    The Karabakh Organization Committee (KLO) was founded in Baku on 28
    January 2000 with the aim of conducting a public struggle for the
    liberation of Nagorno-Karabakh from the Armenian occupants. The
    organization, headed by Akif Nagi, the candidate in historical
    sciences, unites over 10,000 people, including outstanding
    representatives of intelligentsia, refugees and internally displaced
    people, youth, former fighters, senior ranking officers in reserve,
    as well as different social segments of the population.
