    ARMENIAN, AZERBAIJANI DEFENSE MINISTERS NOT DISCUSS ISSUE OF "OCCUPIED" TERRITORIES

    Arka News Agency, Armenia
    Nov 3 2006

    YEREVAN, November 3. /ARKA/. At their meeting on October 20, Armenian
    and Azerbaijani Ministers of Defense Serge Sargsyan and Safar Abiyev
    did not discuss the issue of Armenia's vacating the "occupied"
    territories, Press Secretary of the RA Minioster of Defense Colonel
    Seyran Shahsuvaryan told ARKA.

    "Abiev's statement quoted by Azerbaijani mass media that during his
    meeting with Sargsyan on October 20 the first issue raised by the
    Azerbaijani Minister concerned the withdrawal of Armenian troops
    from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan does not correspond to
    the facts," Shahsuvaryan said.

    He said that the Ministers' meeting at the Armenian-Azerbaijani
    border was held on the personal initiative of OSCE Chairman-in-Office
    Andrej Kasprzic to promote mutual confidence between the Armenian
    and Azerbaijani Defense Offices. Shahsuvaryan said that the Ministers
    only discussed issues of maintaining the cease-fire regime and border
    control. P.T. -0--
