    Deputy FM says settlement of Armenians in Garabagh confirmed


    Baku, February 2, AssA-Irada
    The Azerbaijani side has no official information on the activity of
    the OSCE fact-finding mission in Upper Garabagh. However, some
    sources indicate that the evidence forwarded to the mission by
    Azerbaijan is being confirmed, the Deputy Foreign Minister Araz
    Azimov told journalists on Wednesday.
    Azimov underlined that settlement of Armenians in the occupied lands
    of Azerbaijan is part of Armenia's state policy and the Armenian
    press give a broad coverage to this issue.
    `Armenians settled in the occupied lands are encouraged with certain
    privileges, as they are granted land plots free of charge, freed from
    tax payments and even their children are granted rights to reject
    military service,' the Deputy Foreign Minister said.
    Azimov added that `it is impossible not to see the facts', adding
    that the OSCE mission will prepare a report based on these facts.*
