On Tuesday, April 24, Hasan Ruhani went to Tahti Stadium on his visit to Tabriz city. The South Azerbaijani Turks gathered in the Tahti Stadium met Ruhani by throwing national slogans instead of welcoming him. Some of the slogans were as follows: Tabriz is a center of Azeebaijan, it is everyone’s right to have education in Turkish language, Urmia Lake is drying up, if Azerbaijan Will not wake up, it will be defeated.
It is necessary to emphasize that Hasan Ruhani had promised to save the Urmia lake, and to open Turkish language center in South Azerbaijan, during his election campaign, he also promised to launch education in schools in Turkish, but none of those promises were fulfilled. South Azerbaijan Turkish people have lost their confidence because of the government’s lies, and now they do not easily believe in Ruhani and his state. The greatest representation of this, is interruption of Ruhanis speech and throwing slogans of the interests of Azerbaijan.
