The Azerbaijan-Israel youth friendship society, functioning in Azerbaijan, released a statement, regarding protests of a number of organizations to opening of the Azerbaijan-Israel park of friendship in Baku.
The statement reads that Israel was one of the first to recognize independence of Azerbaijan and it always supported our country on the international level.

According to the author of the statement, Azerbaijan should better deepen relations with Israel that deteriorate them.

The society also assesses the appeals against opening of the Park of Friendship as populist and inciting international animosity.

As is reported, the Islamic party of Azerbaijan plans to hold a protest against opening of the alley of Azerbaijan-Israel Friendship in Baku on May 18.

Previously, the Organization for Karabakh Liberation also condemned the Israeli embassy for the attempt to hold opening ceremony of the park on May 8, the day of Shusha's occupation by Armenian armed forces.
