    AZERI PRESSURE GROUP PROTESTS AT FRENCH GENOCIDE BILL

    ANS TV, Baku,
    16 Oct 2006

    A group of the Karabakh Liberation Organization [KLO] members have
    attempted to stage a protest outside the French embassy against the
    French parliament's bill criminalizing the denial of the Armenian
    genocide. One of the protesters threw eggs and tomatoes on the
    embassy building.

    The protesters could read out their resolution not far from the
    embassy. The resolution was handed to the French embassy at the end
    of the protest.

    The French parliament has openly supported aggressor Armenia, taking
    a disgraceful position on Azerbaijan, Turkey, the entire Islamic and
    Turkic world, the protesters said in their resolution.

    Therefore, the French parliament's decision must be changed,
    and political, economic and cultural relations with France must
    be severed. France must be removed from the OSCE Minsk Group
    chairmanship and no talks on Nagornyy Karabakh must be conducted on
    French territory.

    Eighteen people, who attempted to stage the protest, were arrested,
    the KLO reported. [Baku's] Sabayil district police department said
    that all detainees had been set free after giving explanations.
