YEREVAN, JUNE 17, ARMENPRESS: Two senior Armenian army officers will
travel to Azerbaijan’s capital of Baku on June 22 to participate in
a NATO sponsored conference to be held within the frameworks of its
Partnership for Peace program.

Colonel Murad Isakhanian and Aram Hovhanesian from defense ministry’s
department of foreign relations will go to the capital of Georgia,
Tbilisi, to try to get visas from Azerbaijan’s embassy there on
June 21.

Last January, Armenian officers were not allowed to attend a planning
conference for Best Cooperative Effort exercises. Azeri President
Ilham Aliyev has made a commitment to the U.S. not to hinder Armenia’s
participation in the upcoming NATO exercises in Azerbaijan. Also
this week, Azeri officials pledged to provide security to Armenian
participants.
