visit Baku and meet with the Azerbaijani leadership on April 12. It's the
3-rd visit of the US Secretary of Defense to Azerbaijan since 2003. `As far
as I know the visit aims at coming to final decision on the issues
considered during US Deputy Commander for the European Command Charles
Wald's call to Baku', independent expert Uzeir Jafarov stated, Echo
newspaper reported. `The matter undoubtedly concerns the deployment of the
US military bases in Azerbaijan. This decision should be made on the highest
political level, i.e by the Azerbaijani President and the Defense Secretary.
Baku has already given consent on the issue, thus it only remains to
co-ordinate some details. To all appearances Donald Rumsfeld is coming to
clarify the terms. I am convinced the final decision will be made till
mid-April and Azerbaijan's answer will be positive', Uzeir Jafarov resumed.
