FRUITLESS EFFORTS TO PREVENT DEMONSTRATIONS OF ARMENIAN FILMS IN CZECH
TOWNS

In the town of Brno, Czhech Republic, the demonstration of Armenian
"War and Peace" film by director Hovhannisian was preceded by
anti-propaganda and distribution of booklets by Azerbaijan. According
to "Azeri.press" agency, the Azerbaijani side desired in that way to
"spread light upon the truth" of the events in Nagorno-Karabakh. As it
is already clear, the film is about the war in
Nagorno-Karabakh. Certain sources from Prague inform that Fuad
Alkhasov, who poses himself as Karabkah war veteran, had also
organized protest actions before the demonstration of the Armenian
film in Prague.

Organizers of the film festival, being well acquainted with the real
situation in Karabakh, did not leave the turn to answer to the
Armenians. Before the next demonstration of "War and Peace" in the
town of Budovice, detailed information on the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict will be represented to the guests.
