AZERBAIJANI OPPOSITION CALLS ON PRESIDENT TO RESIGN
Thousands of Azerbaijanis similarly attended a 22 February rally convened by the opposition Organization for the Liberation of Karabakh to mark the Khodjaly anniversary, Turan reported. Participants adopted a resolution calling for an end to what they termed the ineffective mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group; for the implementation of four UN Security Council resolutions on Karabakh; and for the trial in an international court on charges of organizing genocide and ethnic cleansing of former Armenian President Levon Ter-Petrossian, President Kocharian, and Arkadii Ghukasian, president of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. They also criticized what they termed the "defeatist" Karabakh policy of Azerbaijani President Heidar Aliev and demanded that he present an accounting of measures undertaken over the past decade to liberate Karabakh and that he resign.
