A group of Azerbaijani political refugees in Europe today staged a protest at the Palace of Europe in Strasbourg, during the speech of President Ilham Aliyev before the MPs.
Penetrating into the room, they settled in the forefront and shut their mouths with black cloth. In this case the protesters wore T-shirts with the photo image of political prisoners in Azerbaijan. In connection with this the performance was suspended for a while. Later Aliyev continued his speech. - 16D06 -
