The Azeri Organization liberating Karabakh has blamed Russia for
protecting Armenians. The organization has made a statement calling
on the Russians to cease discriminating the Azeris in Russia.
The statement claims that commerce centers in large Russian cities
belonging to Azeris are closed, and their owners are not granted
permission to open new ones. "The houses of our compatriots are
searched.
They are fined for no reason. It is not by chance that these steps
are taken on the eve of January 20 which testifies to the support of
Russia to hostile Armenia", the statement says.
The Organization calls on the Russian authorities to cease
discriminating the Azeris, otherwise they will have to close the
Azeri Embassy in Russia and evict all the Russians from Azerbaijan,
