BAKU: Armenia’s presence in Baku-hosted NATO exercises normal

Armenia’s presence in Baku-hosted NATO exercises normal – Azeri official

ANS TV, Baku
2 Jul 04

[Presenter] Azerbaijani Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov has a calm
attitude to the news that another group of Armenian officers will
arrive in Baku.

[Correspondent over video of flags of different countries] Official
Baku regards as normal the participation of Armenian officers in the
NATO exercises in Baku within the framework of the Partnership for
Peace programme this September.

[Azimov speaking to microphone] The NATO exercises due in Azerbaijan
in September are very important and large-scale. All NATO and
Partnership for Peace programme member countries have the right to
attend the event.

[Correspondent] Official Yerevan intends to send seven officers to
Azerbaijan in September. Azimov thinks that the number of officers is
defined at the NATO headquarters.

[Azimov] First, the number of officers depends on the format of the
exercises to be held in September. Second, it depends on the scenario
of the exercises. It will also depend on the role given to countries
within the framework of this scenario. Thus, I assume that two or
three people from Armenia might join the exercises in September.
