the forthcoming visit to Baku of an Armenian delegation to participate
in regular NATO exercises. MPA reports that despite police opposition
the protesters managed to picket the building and shout slogans for
20-25 minutes. The protesters say that despite the fact they back
Azerbaijan's pro-West policies and cooperation with NATO, the UPFAP
will protest against any abasement of the republic and the Azerbaijani
people. The pickets demand that the Azerbaijani authorities do not
allow representatives of the occupying Armenian army to come to
Baku. The demand was handed over to Foreign Ministry representatives.
