    DEPUTY SPEAKER OF AZERI PARLIAMENT ECHOES DEFENSE
    MINISTER

    BAKU, DECEMBER 7, ARMENPRESS: A deputy speaker of
    Azerbaijani parliament, Ziafat Askerov, echoed today
    defense minister Safar Abiyev by saying a new war
    between Armenia and Azerbaijan was not ruled out.
    Azerbaijan-Novosti news agency quoted him as saying
    that the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
    was a matter of time.
    `Azerbaijan can shift to other options at any
    moment to solve this problem. This is her right and no
    one can condemn us for it,' he said.
    But he added that the official Baku would prefer a
    peaceful solution.
    `Azerbaijan has sufficient military and other
    resources to use force to win Nagorno-Karabakh back,'
    he said.
    "As long as Azerbaijani territory is occupied by
    Armenia, the chance of war is close to 100 percent,"
    defense minister Safar Abiyev said during a November
    27 meeting in Kazakhstan of defense chiefs from
    ex-Soviet republics.
