  • BAKU: Former presidential aide warns against Russian military attack

    Former Azeri presidential aide warns against Russian military attack


    A former aide to the Azerbaijani president has said that Russia may
    attack any time and has urged the authorities to invite Turkish troops
    into the country, opposition daily Yeni Musavat reported on 29 August.

    Vafa Quluzada, former aide to the Azerbaijani president and prominent
    political analyst, believes that Russia may attack Azerbaijan any
    time: "Armenia and Russia held military drills in Azerbaijan's
    occupied districts several months ago. They are ready to attack. Along
    with Armenian troops, Russian troops are on the front-line. Let
    everyone know that Armenian-Russian military units stationed on the
    front-line are waiting for the order to attack Azerbaijan."

    Quluzada called for international reaction to what he described as "a
    Russian threat": "Turkey and the USA should urgently react. Let the UK
    know that if things continue this way, Russia will force British
    Petroleum out of Azerbaijan. So, let them not remain indifferent
    towards Russia's actions."

    "I have called on the Azerbaijani and Turkish authorities to deploy
    one or two Turkish [military] divisions in Azerbaijan," Yeni Musavat
    quoted Quluzada as saying.
