Azerbaijani and Turkish communities are staging actions of protest
worldwide to counter the so-called Armenian genocide campaign. The
Armenians allege that on April 24, 1915, they fell victim to genocide
on the part of the Turks.
The objective of the Azerbaijani and Turkish communities is to provide
an accurate account of what really happened in Turkey in 1915. The
Congress of the World Azerbaijanis is now conducting one such action
in the capital of Russia's Tatarstan, Kazan.
Ethnic Azeris and Turks are expected to launch a series of protests in
a number of American and European countries to counter the genocide
claims. A representative of the US-Azerbaijan Friendship Society,
Badir Mammadli, has said in Washington that large-scale campaigns
will be held outside the Turkish embassy. For this, posters and photo
stands have been prepared documenting the atrocities unleashed by
the Armenians in Khojaly.
Hundreds of civilians were brutally killed by Armenian forces in
the Khojaly district on February 26, 1992, which marks one of the
bloodiest pages in Azerbaijan's history.
A representative of the Movement for Azerbaijan in Germany, Guldana
Rzayeva, has said local Turks and Jews would join the actions of
protest to be staged by the movement.
Similar actions will be held through May 8 in many parts of the world.
