Baku, April 7, AssA-Irada
An Armenian official has said that phone calls are made from Armenia
to Azerbaijan.
"It is impossible to call from Azerbaijan to Armenia, but calling
the other way round is very easy. To connect, it is enough to dial
the 994 (area) code and the telephone number," the head of Armenian
communications ministry's foreign relations department, Gagik
Grigorian, said, commenting on the Azeri Minister of Communications
and Information Technologies Ali Abbasov's statement made Thursday.
Abbasov said the government was aware of numerous facts concerning
phone communication between the two countries. He said the National
Security Ministry is monitoring the conversations. It is also working
to oversee the existing electronic communication between Azerbaijan
and Armenia, although it is extremely difficult to control, he said.
Grigorian said that indeed, hundreds of Azeris and Armenians
communicate via different Internet forums every day.
The two countries which are facing a long-standing conflict over Upper
(Nagorno) Garabagh maintain no relations.
