    MINISTER SLAMS ARMENIA OVER ENVIRONMENT POLLUTION

    AzerNews Weekly, Azerbaijan
    April 13 2006

    The Azeri Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources Huseyn Baghirov
    said on Friday that Armenia's actions hurting the environment in the
    occupied Azeri land once again prove the true gist of its hostile
    policy against Azerbaijan.

    This includes felling of trees and pollution of water basins and rivers
    going through the occupied territories. The ongoing preparation of
    documents in several languages concerning the issue will be completed
    soon. The data will be made public both in and outside the country,
    the minister told a news conference Friday. The trees are felled in
    the preserve located in the Zangilan district as well as in other
    Armenia-occupied territories, for their further exports to Italy,
    France, Greece and Iran.

    The timber is used for various purposes, including furniture production
    and shipbuilding. A prompt response center is operating under the Azeri
    ecology ministry to track down the dire impact on the environment and
    natural resources in the occupied areas. It has prepared two reports
    and a plan of action to address the problem. The center has plenty
    of materials at its disposal proving Armenia's destructive influence
    on these territories.
