    Russian Foreign Ministry over Russian parliament's Vice Speaker
    Vladimir Zhirinovsky's recent statement,' Azerbaijani Foreign
    Ministry's Spokesperson Elkan Polukhov said.

    newspaper, Zhirinovsky said `Russia should recognize
    Nagorno-Karabakh's independence once it itself proclaims its
    independence.'

    `The Azerbaijani embassy in Russia has sent a protest note to the
    Foreign Ministry in connection with the statement by Vladimir
    Zhirinovsky in which he called for the recognition of Azerbaijani
    territories occupied by the Armenian armed forces,' Polukhov added.

    "The note protests such a statement by Russian Vice Speaker and the
    states that such remarks by the Russian State Duma contradict spirit
    of relations between the two countries,' he said.
