    FRANCE: AZERBAIJAN ITSELF EVADES FROM DEFENCE MINISTRY AGREEMENT LIKE ONE SIGNED WITH ARMENIA

    Azerbaijan Business Center
    feb 17 2010

    Baku, Fineko/abc.az. France has applied Russia's tactics for
    clarification of different-level defence collaboration with Azerbaijan
    and Armenia. A reason for that was signing of the French-Armenia
    defence co-operation agreement in Paris on 10 February.

    The special statement of thre French Embassy in Azerbaijan says that
    in accordance with its OSCE Minsk Group co-chair's position France
    attaches importance to maintenance of neutrality in relationships
    with Azerbaijan and Armenia and no one point of this document signed
    by defence ministers puts this neutrality under doubt.

    "Precisely in the spirit of this neutrality France proposes Azerbaijan
    to sign a similar document. But the Azerbaijani government has not
    given so far official answer to this suggestion that is still in
    force," the statement says.

    Once, Russia also explained higher level of military co-operation
    with Armenia with official Baku's unwillingness to agree on similar
    agreements with the Russian party.

    "The document signed with Armenia defines themes of administrative
    co-operation between defence bodies. This collaboration concerns ideas
    of defence and security, and organization of armed forces (democratic
    control over them, commanding, staff administration and management,
    military education and language study, public relations, legislation,
    military history, tribunal and public health). The document shows
    clearly lack of exchange of with classified information and materials
    and its goal is specification of content of consultations between
    two countries' defence ministries," the statement says.
