BRITISH COURT FOLLOWS AZERBAIJANI LAWS
Azat Artsakh - Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
28 Sept 04
The numerous cases of imposing control by Azerbaijan on the foreign
guests visiting Karabakh recently has underwent a slight change in
nature. It turns out that official Azerbaijan is now attempting to
control also the Armenians who want to receive citizenship in foreign
countries. Thus, it became known that two Armenians Artur Barseghian
and Arsen Avanessian who hardly saved from repression in Baku and
sailed to Great Britain through Turkey now face deportation. By the
results of the trial these people, as well as many other refugees in
the same situation must be returned to Azerbaijan as former citizens
of that republic. Meanwhile no British judge is interested in the
political developments around Nagorni Karabakh and does not even
imagine what the return to Baku means for those Armenians against
the background of the Karabakh conflict, the murder of the Armenian
officer in Budapest and the failure of the NATO training in Baku
for the reason that the Armenian officers were not allowed to enter
the territory of Azerbaijan. The leader of the "Organization for
Liberation of Karabakh" Akif Naghi stated, "Their return will turn into
a bloody tragedy for them." If in Baku the security of the Armenians
is not guaranteed even within the framework of NATO then what about
the ordinary Armenians whom the British court decided to deport to
Azerbaijan. While the Armenian refugees try to prove to the foreign
judges that the way to Baku is closed for them, the anti-Armenian
moods in the capital of Azerbaijan are extremely tense. Even the Mili
Mejlis of Azerbaijan addressed to NATO protesting against the visits
of Armenians to Baku. The anti-Armenian propaganda in Azerbaijan
reaches an extremely high level, and this fact is already admitted
by not only the defenders of human rights but also journalists.
