'In the documents of the US State Department published by the
`WikiLeaks' still appear new disgraceful expressions left behind the
political veil and interpretations made by the Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliev.
On Iran, President Aliyev said he supported economic isolation and
believed it could be effective if enforced by a broad coalition. He
complained about Iranian security provocations. On a proposed
battalion-sized Afghanistan contribution, Aliyev said that he would
support sending a team to Georgia to observe the training being
provided by EUCOM to Georgian troops headed for Afghanistan. On energy
cooperation, President Aliyev said that if the Turks demonstrate
"constructive behavior" this year that a gas transit deal can happen.
Finally, on the jailed youth activists, though he made no firm
commitments regarding their release, he said, "I think (a pardon or
amnesty) can be done. I had no intention to hurt anyone."
