    AZERBAIJAN DOES NOT HEED THE MEDIATORS' ADMONITIONS

    ArmInfo. Azerbaijan does not heed the calls of the mediators on the
    Karabakh settlement to refrain from militaristic statements.

    The regular example of strong stomach was demonstrated by Azerbaijan's
    Defense Minister Safar Abiyev on November 25. Defense Minister of
    Poland Bogdan Klich visited Azerbaijan within the frames of a regional
    visit. 'The tearful-threatening statements to Armenia have become the
    high spot at the meeting of the Polish minister with his Azerbaijani
    counterpart. The Azerbaijani mass media present a list of claims,
    which have already drawn the mouth. This is, surely, 'occupation',
    as a result of which 'over 1 million of people were expelled from
    their native lands'. To note, Abiyev does not indicate the national
    identity of refugees. Actually, about 700,000 refugees out of those
    he indicated are Azerbaijanis, another half million are Armenians
    expelled from Azerbaijan. Having complained of ineffectiveness of
    negotiations held under mediation of OSCE MG, the minister came to the
    conclusion that 'use of a military way by Azerbaijan for liberation
    of its lands will become inevitable in such a situation'.

    By the way, as regards the Munich meeting of the Armenian and
    Azerbaijani presidents, the parties expressed satisfaction, none the
    less. Apparently, the defense minister of Azerbaijan receives the
    latest news with some delay. In view of this, to recall, the regular
    militaristic statement by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, which
    preceded the two presidents' meeting, caused a negative response,
    by mediators as well, who called on the parties to refrain from
    such statements.
