Azerbaijan will raise the issue to set up a special inspection under
the NATO and OSCE to prevent Armenia’s armament in violation of
European Agreement for firearms, military sources told APA.
Defense Ministry information service chief, Colonel Ramiz Melikov
said that such issue is generally raised by the government.
Zahid Oruj, member of Milli Majlis permanent commission for defense,
considered this issue possible.
"We intend to propose NATO leadership to set up a special commission.
Armenia’s armament should be considered by the organizations
responsible for security in Europe", he noted.
Zahid Oruj said that the agreements on cooperation between Azerbaijan
and NATO, as well as other international organizations, give the
opportunity to appeal in this connection.
"NATO has powerful resources to fight against the proliferation of
nuclear, chemical and ordinary weapons. The organization can impose
sanctions on any country in this field", he said.
