Representatives of the Tajik youth organization “Avangard” (Vanguard) want the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) to respond to their letter.
About 50 representatives of the “Avangard” organization gathered outside the building of the OSCE Office in Tajikistan demanding response to their letter to the OSCE.
“In the letter that was sent to the OSCE on September 20, we expressed perplexity how supporters of the banned Islamic Revival Party of Tajikistan (IRPT) and Group 24 managed to enter the OSCE Human Dimension Implementation Meeting in Warsaw without difficulty,” one of “Avangard” leaders, Asliddin Khoushvakhtov, told Asia-Plus in an interview.
Acting Head of the OSCE Office in Tajikistan, Fabio Piana, received representatives of the Avangard organization.
He noted that their letter had been translated and sent to the OSCE Headquarters.
Established in August 2015, the Avangard organization is tasked with preventing the spread of extremism ideas among the youth.
