Radical group leader says not to give up struggling

Akif Naghi, chairman of the Garabagh Liberation Organization (GLO),
who has recently released form jail, held a news conference on
Thursday.
Highly appreciating the role of media in their release, Naghi
stressed that the Azerbaijani people took the unified position
towards the Garbagh issue and demonstrated unity.
`Despite the conditional imprisonment for its members, the GLO will
continue its course and won’t give up struggling,’ Naghi said.
The GLO chairman underlined that Armenian parliamentarians won’t be
allowed to participate in the meeting of the NATO Parliamentary
Assembly scheduled to be held in Baku late in November.
According to Naghi, the Armenian parliamentarians helped Armenia
occupy Upper Garabagh, which is part of Azerbaijan and their
participation in NATO exercises, is as important as that of Armenian
officers.*
