    AZERI DM SAYS ARMENIA BREACHES CFE TREATY

    Azerbaijani news agency APA, Baku, in Azeri
    21 Sep 06

    Baku, 21 September: Azerbaijani Defence Minister Col-Gen Safar Abiyev
    today received a delegation led by the deputy commander of the US
    European Command, Gen William Ward.

    At the meeting, Abiyev spoke about the military and political situation
    in Azerbaijan and said that Azerbaijan was at war with Armenia, the
    Defence Ministry press service told APA. "Although the OSCE Minsk
    Group co-chairmen are dealing with the conflict settlement and the UN
    Security Council adopted four resolutions demanding the unconditional
    withdrawal of the Armenian armed forces from Azerbaijan's territory,
    Armenia does not implement these demands.

    Armenia keeps a huge amount of unregistered weapons and ammunition
    in Azerbaijan's occupied territory. This means that Armenia openly
    violates the Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty."

    Gen Ward said that during the trip he had visited several units of
    the Azerbaijani armed forces. He said that the process of bringing the
    Azerbaijani armed forces into line with NATO standards was developing
    successfully. He voiced his readiness to help the Azerbaijani armed
    forces in this area.
