Armenian youth of Argentina stages protest at Azeri embassy

On March 2, representatives of the Armenian youth in Argentina staged a protest at the embassy of Azerbaijan in Buenos Aires on occasion of the 24th anniversary of Sumgait pogroms.

The building was surrounded by large number of policemen despite the fact that Azerbaijani ambassador to Argentina was then on a visit to Baku, accompanying Argentine Foreign Minister Héctor Marcos Timerman, says the message sent to PanARMENIAN.Net.

The protest action also aimed at drawing Argentine community’s attention to Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement particularly the aggressive statements by the Azerbaijani side, as well as propaganda by Azeri embassy with a purpose to distort the actual essence of the conflict.

The event was organized by ARFD youth wing.
