    AZERBAIJAN'S KARABAKH LIBERATION ORGANIZATION TO PROTEST AGAINST ARMENIAN MPS' VISIT TO BAKU

    TREND Information, Azerbaijan
    Oct 2 2007

    Azerbaijan, Baku / Òrend corr S. Ilhamgizi / Azerbaijan's Karabakh
    Liberation Organization (KLO) will hold protest actions against
    arrival of Armenian MPs in Baku, the Chairman of the KLO, Akif Naghi,
    said on 2 October.

    The meeting of the Culture, Education and Science Committee of the
    Black Sea Economic Cooperation's (BSEC) Parliamentary Assembly to
    take place in Baku from 3 to 4 October is expected to be attended by
    the MPs from Armenia. If it is certin that the representatives from
    Armenia are to participate in the conference, a protest action will be
    held in front of Gulustan Palace, where the conference will be held,
    Naghi said.

    According to him, the organization believes Armenian officials' visits
    to Azerbaijan, as well as mollification of the official Baku's attitude
    towards the aggressor country, does not correspond with Azerbaijan's
    national interests.

    KLO had planned to hold a protest action before Armenians
    participated in the meeting of the CIS Interior Ministers in Baku on
    6 September. Police banned the action.

    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 neighbouring 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 and Minsk Group
    ( Russia, France and USA) are currently holding peaceful negotiations.

    The KLO was established in Baku on 28 January 2000, with the objective
    of a public struggle for the liberation of Nagorno-Karabakh. KLO
    unites representatives of intelligentsia, refugees and Internally
    Displaced Persons (IDPs), old and young people as well as former
    military soldiers.
