    MILLI MAJLIS VICE-SPEAKER: ARMENIA AGREES NOT TO FLY OVER AIRSPACE OF AZERBAIJAN

    Azerbaijan Business Center
    July 17 2012

    Baku, Fineko/abc.az. When summarizing the results of the spring
    session the Azerbaijani parliamentarians did not sidestep vital issues.

    At a press conference in Baku Milli Majlis deputy speaker Bahar
    Muradova has informed that the Azerbaijani side will respond adequately
    to the attempts of illegal flights over Nagorno Garabagh occupied
    by Armenia.

    "There are international laws governing issues of flight of civil
    aircrafts, and Azerbaijan has always preferred to operate within
    its framework. The Azerbaijani side has always based itself on the
    standards in relations with Armenia, and with appearance of tension
    on this matter the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)
    also expressed its position that the parties must adhere to these
    requirements. If we commit ourselves to ensure the safety of both
    civil and other flying objects over our airspace, the other party has
    committed not to violate the sovereign rights of another country. That
    is why if the Armenian side has given its consent to it, it means it
    also agreed not to fly over the airspace of Azerbaijan," Muradova said.

    She added that in case Armenia carries out illegal flights over the
    territory of Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijani side will give an adequate
    answer.
