According to the news service for Milli Majlis, the statement came from
Ziyafat Asgarov, first vice speaker of the Azerbaijani parliament,
chairman of the parliamentary committee on security and defense, at
the Friday meeting with a delegation led by deputy chairman of the
committee on defense and security of the Federal Council of Russia
Viktor Maslov.

cooperating in military and defense sphere which is proven by the
use of the Gabala radar station, belong to Azerbaijan, by Russia.
As for the draft state budget of Azerbaijan for 2011, Asgarov said the
defense costs have increased significantly in the country's budget,
which is caused by the continued occupation of 20% of Azerbaijani
lands by Armenia. According to the vice speaker, the increase in
military costs must be perceived normally in this connection.

conflict, anyway. We will not allow creating the second Armenian state

Azerbaijan for already five days and through this period it held a

Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno Karabakh within the
framework of the territorial integrity of the states.
