    NGO Forum blames NATO for breaching principles

    Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
    Sept 8 2004

    Baku, September 7, AssA-Irada

    The National NGO Forum held a news conference in protest against
    Armenian officers' planned visit to Baku to attend NATO military
    training under the Partnership for Peace program.

    The Forum President Azay Guliyev said the invitation of Armenian
    officers to NATO command-staff training in Baku has sparked a
    nationwide rage.

    This contradicts NATO's charter and principles saying that there
    shouldn't be any conflict among NATO member states, including partner
    countries, Guliyev said.

    The Forum states that the participation of the military men from an
    invader country in any event organized in Azerbaijan is unacceptable
    unless occupied Azerbaijani lands are liberated and about one million
    refugees return home.

    The Forum intends to hold a series of rallies in protest against
    Armenian officers' visit before September 13.*
