(MENAFN- AzerNews) Support was shown for Azerbaijani environmental activists
holding a peaceful demonstration on the Khankandi-Lachin road
inside the World Economic Forum in Davos (Switzerland), Azernews
reports, citing the the State Committee on Work with Diaspora of
Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijani activists participated in the Green Up
organization's action on Davos' Promenade Street, according to the
Committee.
During peaceful demonstrations on the Khankandi-Lachin road,
citizens showed their support for Azerbaijani civil society
representatives by holding signs that read, 'Stop the illegal
exploitation of Azerbaijan's natural resources!' and 'Stop
environmental terrorism in the territories of Azerbaijan!'
Residents of the city were informed about Armenia's illegitimate
use of Azerbaijan's natural resources in the region where Russian
peacekeepers were temporarily stationed.
Tural Aliyev, a Ph.D. researcher at the University of Geneva's
Institute for Environmental Sciences, stressed the introduction of
green technologies and infrastructure as well as the sustainable
use of natural resources when speaking at the event on 'Revamping
Investment for Regenerating Nature' in Davos. Tural is a member of
the Coordination Council of Swiss Azerbaijanis. He pointed out that
legitimate public discontent is caused by the illegal exploitation
of mineral resources. The German and Azerbaijani protests that are
currently taking place are an example given by the Azerbaijani
scientist.
Posters and booklets illustrating the demands of environmental
activists were displayed as part of the event, which was organized
in collaboration with the UN, the EU, and the University of
Geneva.
