Azerbaijan, Baku / Ò corr I. Alizadeh / MP Azay Guliyev, the chairman
of the National Forum of NGOs, stated on 1 May during the sitting of
the Milli Majlis (Azerbaijani Parliament) that the parliament should
pass a special law to prevent the co-operation of Azerbaijani NGOs
with Armenia.
Guliyev noted that the relations between Azerbaijani NGOs and Armenian
organizations were expanding with every passing day. They organize
regular bilateral visits. "In a month, a group representing Azerbaijani
NGOs will visit Armenia in order to organize special summer camps to
extend its co-operation. However, Azerbaijani legislation does not
have the corresponding laws to prevent this process," Guliyev added.
The MP stressed the Armenian government is interested in this type
of co-operation. Therefore, Armenia displays the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict as an inter-governmental problem, not as a conflict between
the nations. Guliyev regards the co-operation with the NGOs operating
in Nagorno-Karabakh as a permissible fact, as the Armenians residing
there are the citizens of Azerbaijan.
