The Karabakh Liberation Organization [KLO] is protesting about a
meeting between young people from Azerbaijan and Armenia at a Gugark
camp in Lori Region. A statement from the KLO says that a group of
young men, led by rights activist [head of the Azerbaijani National
Committee of the Helsinki Citizens’ Assembly] Arzu Abdullayeva,
is attending the event designed to contribute to friendly relations
between Azerbaijanis, Armenians and Karabakh residents.
This runs against Azerbaijan’s national interests, the statement said.
Because many Azerbaijanis were killed at the same Gugark camp in 1988
and 32 people were murdered in a welded pipe. The KLO believes that
the Azerbaijani delegates of the so-called people’s diplomacy are again
serving Armenian policy and justify Armenia’s policy of occupation.
The KLO is urging them to end the people’s diplomacy and to reject
steps which run counter to Azerbaijan’s interests, the statement said.
