Baku, 21 September: Azerbaijani Defence Minister Col-Gen Safar Abiyev
today received a delegation led by the deputy commander of the US
European Command, Gen William Ward.

At the meeting, Abiyev spoke about the military and political situation
in Azerbaijan and said that Azerbaijan was at war with Armenia, the
Defence Ministry press service told APA. "Although the OSCE Minsk
Group co-chairmen are dealing with the conflict settlement and the UN
Security Council adopted four resolutions demanding the unconditional
withdrawal of the Armenian armed forces from Azerbaijan’s territory,
Armenia does not implement these demands.

Armenia keeps a huge amount of unregistered weapons and ammunition
in Azerbaijan’s occupied territory. This means that Armenia openly
violates the Conventional Forces in Europe Treaty."

Gen Ward said that during the trip he had visited several units of
the Azerbaijani armed forces. He said that the process of bringing the
Azerbaijani armed forces into line with NATO standards was developing
successfully. He voiced his readiness to help the Azerbaijani armed
forces in this area.
