    Azeri party urges government to declare US envoy "persona non grata"

    Turan news agency
    7 Aug 05

    Baku, 5 August: The People's Front of Azerbaijan Party must be closed
    and its leader Ali Karimli must be arrested, the pro-government Modern
    Musavat Party demanded today. It justifies its demand by Karimli's
    cooperation with Armenians.

    Moreover, the Modern Musavat Party is demanding an immediate "end to
    the activities in Azerbaijan of the National Democratic Institute
    [NDI], which is a spy network of the West". At the same time, the
    party is suggesting that the US ambassador [to Azerbaijan] be declared
    "persona non grata".

    Otherwise, the Modern Musavat is threatening to stage "protests which
    will be attended by tens of thousands of people outside the NDI office
    and the US embassy".
