Tens of S. Azerbaijani Turks gathered in the Swedish capital, Stockholm to protest against the chauvinist Persian Iranian regime. Iranian security and intelligence forces (Ettelaat) have arrested nearly fifty (50) Southern Azerbaijani cultural and national activists in the near past. Most of the arrests were due to the regime’s fear of a similar uprising by the Southern Azerbaijani Turks as it happened on May 22, 2006.
