Opposition party to continue protests
Baku, August 9, AssA-Irada
The Whole Azerbaijan Popular Front Party (WAPFP) will continue
protests against the participation of Armenian officers in NATO
training to be held in Baku this September.
The party plans to picket the Defense Ministry on Wednesday as well
as the US and French embassies in Baku – on Thursday and on Friday
respectively.
The WAPFP intends to hold ten protest actions outside some of the
ministries and the embassies of NATO member states by September. The
police prevented the party’s August 2 picket held outside the Foreign
Ministry 2.
The Mayoral Office of Baku has not sanctioned the WAPFP’s protest
actions.*
