PanARMENIAN.Net - Athens Armenian youth staged a protest action against
the Azeri destruction of Armenian cemetery in Old Jugha (Nakhijevan).
On June 6, the young people distributed awareness leaflets ahead
of a classical music concert to be attended by Greek diplomats,
entrepreneurs and public figures.
The action was organized by the youth wing of ARF Dashnaktsutyun,
with over 1000 leaflets distributed. Concert organizers called police,
and though the young people explained the action to be a peaceful one,
several were detained.
According to ARFD representatives, the action served its purpose
in showing the true face of Azerbaijan, with Baku trying to present
itself as a cultural country while destructing historical monuments.
