  • BAKU: Azeri Embassy Challenges Garabagh Part In Moscow Tourism Show

    AZERI EMBASSY CHALLENGES GARABAGH PART IN MOSCOW TOURISM SHOW

    Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
    May 16 2006

    The Azeri embassy in Moscow has sent a diplomatic note to the Russian
    Foreign Ministry expressing protest at the invitation of an Upper
    (Nagorno) Garabagh delegation to a tourism exhibition in Moscow on
    May 11-14. There has been no reply from the ministry yet.

    Earlier the embassy sent a protest note to the organizer of the show,
    the Moscow City Tourism Committee, describing as a fake the exponents
    presented as being of Armenian origin. The committee left the letter
    unheeded.

    On Saturday, the day of official opening, a group of young ethnic
    Azeris living in Russia came to the exhibition venue draped in the
    Azerbaijan national flags and encircled the exhibition pavilions in
    protest. The young people said the exhibits described as Armenian
    were actually Azerbaijani.
