Today the 15th anniversary of the occupation of Azerbaijani town of Shushua-center of Karabakh by Armenian military forces was commemorated in the Alley of Martyrs by the Garabagh Liberation Organization, Azerbaijan Islamic Party, Shusha region executive power, Azerbaijani community of Nagorno Karabakh and several public organizations.

The participants started the commemorative event by marching from the Azizbayov monument till the Alley of Martyrs.

They chanted slogans condemning Armenia's aggressive policy, OSCE Minsk Group's unjust policy – "Liberation to Karabakh", "Karabakh without Shusha!", "No Azerbaijan without Karabakh!", "End Minsk Group's inefficient activity!”", "We don't need biased mediating mission!", "Liberate our lands in a military way!”, “Sacred war against aggressive Armenia!". The rally continued by visiting the martyrs’ graves and eternal torch.

Garabagh Liberation Organization leader Akif Naghi called for the Azerbaijani people to react to the negotiations for the solution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

"Much depends on the people’s will. The people have to assemble and show their will. We should reject mediation of international organizations and foreign states," he stressed.

The rally passed without incident, APA reports.
