Arminfo, Yerevan
22 Nov 04
Stepanakert , 22 November: The defence minister of the Nagornyy
Karabakh Republic NKR , Lt-Gen Seyran Oganyan, has described as
groundless recent Azerbaijani media reports that Baku was allegedly in
negotiations with Washington on deployment of US troops on territories
under the control of Nagornyy Karabakh.
Commenting on debates provoked by Azerbaijani reports in the Karabakh
media on the so-called "occupied territories", the NKR defence minister
said that since the conflict has not been politically resolved,
the territories around Karabakh serve as a security zone.
"The Karabakh army has created a serious defence system on the
controlled territories," Oganyan said.
Oganyan described Baku's belligerent statements as a result of
political short-sightedness and lack of knowledge of subtleties of
the Karabakh problem.
