May headlined: “Occupying army should withdraw from Karabakh (sorry)
from Iraq”
The (left-of-centre) Union of Azerbaijanist Forces (UAF) expresses
its anger at the brutality being committed in Iraq and demands an
end to plunder and genocide. The occupiers must leave the country
and answer before international courts, the union said in a statement
disseminated yesterday.
The authors of the statement express their regret that the authorities,
a number of European-oriented parties and politicians are keeping
silent and called on the public not to be indifferent to the Iraqi
events. Stressing that an Azerbaijani contingent will also be named
amongst Europe’s military machine, the statement demands a withdrawal
of our troops from Iraq.
