YEREVAN, JANUARY 31, ARMENPRESS: Another anti-Armenian hysteria has
occurred in Azerbaijan. It is addressed against Azerbaijani People's
writer Akram Aylisli. As reports Armenpress, referring to haqqin.az,
a pro-government youth group held a rally in front of the house
of famous writer Akram Aylisli. About 30 people protested against
Aylisli's book "Stone Dreams", yelling "Shame on Akram Aylisli! ","
Akram Aylisli - Armenian".
In "Stone Dreams", Akram Aylisli makes positive statements about
Armenians, which caused criticism against him by pro-government
media and activists. According to the ideology of the ruling regime,
it was equal to a betrayal of national interests.
Police arrived by the end of the action, but did not intervene. When
the young people stopped screaming, the police said that it was time
for them to leave. At the end of the campaign, young people burned
portraits of the writer.
