AZERBAIJAN TO DEEPEN LINKS WITH ARMED FORCES OF BELGIUM
[February 23, 2005, 12:04:03]
This idea has been stated by Minister of Defense, colonel-general
Safar Abiyev at the meeting with the ambassador of Kingdom of Belgium
in Turkey and Azerbaijan Mark Van Risselberg.
Colonel-general Safar Abiyev, having welcomed the ambassador, has
congratulated him on a new post and has wished successes. The
Minister has told: `Representatives of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan
and Belgium closely cooperate within the framework of antiterrorist
coalition and the NATO `Partnership for Peace' Program. We are going
to deepen our links with the NATO and Armed forces of Belgium.
Ambassador Mark Van Risselberg has noted that is glad to arrival in
Azerbaijan, highly has estimated active participation of the Republic
in antiterrorist coalition, and has expressed regret in connection
with occupation by Armenia of the Azerbaijan lands. In this sense,
the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan from the beginning of the
Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict have developed and became stronger. But I
would like, that settlement of the conflict has taken place without
use of the Armed Forces.
Having touched upon the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, minister Safar
Abiyev has noted, that in some days would be marked anniversary of
the Khojali tragedy - Day of Genocide of Azerbaijanis in
Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Azerbaijan city of Khojali in one night has been burnt and
destroyed together with inhabitants.
Having emphasized, that the management of Azerbaijan aspires to peace
and fair settlement of the conflict, that at the same time the people
of Azerbaijan is concerned with that the world community till now has
not recognized Armenia as a state- aggressor, he has told: `'To tell
the truth, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in the
resolution adopted recently has named Armenia as a state-aggressor.
But all international organizations should make it. Armenia
systematically resettles the occupied Azerbaijan lands. It is
irresponsibility. We once again declare, that Azerbaijan will not
concede Armenia a span of its land. Until the conflict has not found
its resolution, the probability of renewal of military operations is
great enough. If it will take place, the responsibility will lie on
Armenia'.
