Despite today's dispersal of the opposition protests in Fountain Square, the participants managed to distribute the resolution of the journalists of the action of protest.
It states that the authoritarian regime has been in the country for over 20 years, and "has not released a single inch of the occupied territories of Azerbaijan"; the power is corrupt from top to bottom. Elections in Azerbaijan are always falsified and the video recording with MP Gular Akhmedova once again proved it.
This and other videos show the extent of the criminalization of law enforcement and their involvement in the kidnapping. In this regard, the resolution demanded: to dissolve the fabricated parliament, and to punish members of the electoral authorities and their patrons; punish corrupt officials, to ensure the freedom of speech, assembly, expression, to hold democratic elections with equal conditions for all political forces.
"Public Chamber" stressed that the action was held on the International Day of Human Rights calling on the world democratic community to increase pressure on the Aliyev regime.
In addition, the people of Azerbaijan are called upon to stand against the criminal regime.
"Public Chamber" declares that it will continue to protest until it’s met its requirements and ensure a democratic transformation. "We are many - they are few! We are right - they are wrong! We will win! " reads the resolution.—03B06--
