    Zahid Oruj The bill "On Azerbaijan's participation in peacekeeping
    operations" must also define exact quotas of international peacekeeping
    troops.

    The bill "On Azerbaijan's participation in peacekeeping operations"
    adopted in the second reading of Milli Medjlis will be considered in
    the third reading in late February, said Zahid Oruj, member of the
    parliamentary committee of security and defense.

    He considers that this bill will specify the main forms and rules
    of our country's participation in operations to prevent and settle
    local and regional conflicts. The document also reflects conduction
    of peacekeeping operations in the occupied lands with Azerbaijan's
    participation.

    Zahid Oruj said the bill must also define exact quotas of international
    peacekeeping troops dislocated in Nagorno Karabakh. The deputy
    considers that exact quota must be defined in conduction of
    peacekeeping operations in Azerbaijan based on the format of these
    international forces.

    "If a ceasefire agreement is signed, the number of armed troops from
    each country in the region cannot exceed 33% of the overall staff",
    Oruj said.
