/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The report issued the other day by
the Central Intelligence Agency says that 16% of the
Azerbaijani lands is seized. This information is based
on cartographic data and is not a point at issue,’
PR-officer of the U.S. Embassy in Azerbaijan Jonathan
Henick stated. In his words, the same figure was
mentioned in the CIA previous reports.

`We say that not 20 but 16 per cent of the Azeri
territory is seized but it doesn’t make much
difference. Washington always supported and recognized
the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan,’ he remarked.
Mr. Henick said the terms of Azerbaijani President’s
visit to the United States will be determined during
the meeting of Azeri FM Elmar Mammadyarov with
Secretary Rice, reported Day.az
