Azerbaijan concerned over presence of Russian militaries in Armenian territory- Araz Azimov

According to Ekho Moskvy radio station, the statement came from personal representative of the Azerbaijani president on resolution of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno Karabakh, Azerbaijan’s Deputy Foreign Minister Araz Azimov.

He believes that Russia must shift from militaristic to economic conception of presence in the South Caucasus.

'Unfortunately, Russia considers it necessary to hold troops in Armenia. We see less and less grounds for such a militaristic conception of its presence in the South Caucasus-it is time to change tanks for tankers that is the military form of presence for economic form', he said.

Azimov believes that it is in Russia’s interests to persuade Armenia to accept constructive proposals voiced during negotiations.

Deputy editor-in-chief of Ekho Moskvy Sergey Buntman will be allowed to Azerbaijan after Nagorno Karabakh is resolved, Araz Azimov said.

Sergey Buntman has been blacklisted by Azerbaijan for visiting Nagorno Karabakh and interviewing several high ranking officials of the separatist regime of the Nagorno Karabakh region of Azerbaijan.
