Today, Azerbaijan
May 23 2006
Azerbaijan’s Transport Ministry drafts national technical standards
in transport safety.
Kazim Sharifov, Chief of Safety and Emergency Department in the
Ministry, has reported APA that luggage of passengers traveling
abroad by rail is strictly checked. Hand luggage is checked both by
law enforcement bodies’ servants and transport workers. Saying that
check-up system is strengthened on internal lines, Mr. Sharifov has
connected it with country’s situation.
Ministry officer has stated that transportation infrastructure has
been destroyed by Armenians in occupied areas of Azerbaijan. They
have caused some amount of billion dollars to road and transport
infrastructure in Nagorno Karabakh and surroundings. So rails and
sleepers are dismantled, roads are destroyed.
“We have raised this question before OSCE and other worldwide
organizations. Regretfully, those institutions listen only to our
objections, instead of real job”.
