Baku unable to take part in all CIS military cooperation events -
defense minister
MOSCOW. Dec 11
Azerbaijan will not be able to take part in a number of military
cooperation programs within the CIS, Azeri Defense Minister Safar
Abiyev said.
"Azerbaijan is involved in a majority of programs within the CIS, but
it is not taking part in some of them because it finds it impossible
and undesirable," Abiyev said after a session of the CIS Defense
Ministers Council in Moscow.
Azerbaijan will participate both in the Defense Ministers Council and
other CIS formats in the future, he said.
Due to territorial disputes with Armenia, which is also a CIS member,
Azerbaijan, as a rule, does not take part in joint military exercises
if they involve the Armenian Armed Forces.
