Recently a group of Azerbaijani students organized protest action
against exposition of unrecognized "Nagorno-Garabagh Republic"
exhibited in Moscow international travel exhibition.
Approximately 15 young Azerbaijani people with national flag of
Azerbaijan encircled the exposition of travel agency exhibited "NGR".
The exposition of unrecognized "NGR" was exhibited within the framework
of international travel exhibition organized at Guest Palace by
Moscow Government.
Opposed to it Azerbaijanis based on the fact that Nagorno-Garabagh
is occupied territory, demanded to close the exhibition. Besides the
national flag of Azerbaijan, they had slogans "Garabagh is occupied",
"Stop Armenian aggression", "Azerbaijan's lands occupied", etc. It
is known that protest action was organized by Youth Department of
All-Russian Azerbaijan Congress.
But policemen called by exhibition organizers did not allow
further development of events and without use of force requested our
compatriots to leave the building. Nevertheless, exposition operated
from 11 to 14 May.
As Rufat Azizov and Orkhan Akbarov, Members of Coordinating Board of
Azerbaijani youth informed, albeit "NGR" lacked in list of participants
the exhibition was opened. In connection with that Shamil Garayev
and Javanshir Akhundov, representatives of the Embassy of Azerbaijan
to Russia, conducted negotiations with representatives of Exhibition
Center that gave no results.
It is known that the Embassy of Azerbaijan to Moscow sent a note to
the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia. But yet no respond.
