Organizers of the "You Are Not Alone" campaign in support of the Bulgarian nurses jailed in Libya will sign an agreement for setting up a world coalition by the same name in Paris.

Darik Radio, Standart daily newspaper and bTV will partner up with Michel Taube spokesman of the World Coalition against the death penalty and Bulgaria's ombudsman Ginyo Ganev to form the coalition.

The international coalition will unite all non-governmental organizations and famous people who have supported the campaign until now. The new members that will join in Paris include the Association of Nurses in Belgium and the Paris and London colleges of barristers. Amnesty International will also join the campaign.

Singers Sylvie Vartan and Rayna Kabaivanska, scientists scientific reports by Luc Montagnier and Vittorio Colizzi, Bianca Jagger and chess king Vesselin Topalov will be among the faces of the support campaign.

The five Bulgarian nurses have spent over 8 years in a Libyan jail, wrongfully accused of spreading a HIV epidemic in the children's hospital in Beghazi. They were twice sentenced to death despite world discontent with the trial.
