    Azeri party pickets Foreign Ministry over Armenian NATO visit

    BAKU

    The United People's Front of Azerbaijan Party UPFAP picketed the
    Foreign Ministry at 1200 local time, 0700 gmt today in connection with
    the forthcoming visit to Baku of an Armenian delegation to participate
    in regular NATO exercises. MPA reports that despite police opposition
    the protesters managed to picket the building and shout slogans for
    20-25 minutes. The protesters say that despite the fact they back
    Azerbaijan's pro-West policies and cooperation with NATO, the UPFAP
    will protest against any abasement of the republic and the Azerbaijani
    people. The pickets demand that the Azerbaijani authorities do not
    allow representatives of the occupying Armenian army to come to
    Baku. The demand was handed over to Foreign Ministry representatives.

    Azerbaijani news agency Turan reported on 30 July that the Baku
    mayor's office had refused to authorize the picket.
