Baku, September 16, AssA-Irada
A meeting on the development of Azerbaijan's army-building chaired by
the
President, commander-in-chief Ilham Aliyev was held at the Ministry
of Defense on Friday.
During the discussions on future objectives, Aliyev said army
building is successfully developing in the country, its military
potential is strengthening and the process will continue to proceed
rapidly in the future.
The President said that Azerbaijan's military spending will reach the
level of Armenia's state budget soon, which alarms a number of
forces.
`Armenians are concerned over our increasing military budget, which
is groundless. We are aware how much military aid Russia provided to
Armenia. But we do not interfere with this, as this is their internal
affair', Aliyev said.*
