    Pressure group starts protest actions

    Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
    Nov 25 2004

    Over 50 members of the Garabagh Liberation Organization (GLO) held
    an action at the Samad Vurgun garden in Baku at noon on Wednesday in
    protest against the Armenian parliament members' intended participation
    in the NATO Rose Roth seminar due in Azerbaijan late in November.

    The protesters held posters saying "Shame on those allowing Armenians
    in Baku", "Keep away Armenian invaders" and "NATO, stop supporting
    Armenia!" and released some 100 black balloons in the air, the GLO
    chairman Akif Naghi said.

    After interference by the police, four protesters were taken to the
    Sabayel police precinct, and released two hours later.

    About 30 GLO members held another action in front of the Baku Airport
    Terminal exit door at 3 p.m. on the same day and read out an appeal
    to the airport workers.

    "You also represent the Azerbaijani people and should prevent the
    entry of aggressor Armenians to Baku", the document said. GLO will
    continue protest actions on Thursday.*
