    Azerbaijan should increase its warfare budget as much as needed to
    release our grounds from Armenian occupants, said MP Aydin
    Mirzazadeh, member of Political Council with New Azerbaijan Party,
    Deputy Chairman of permanent commission for defense affairs, reacting
    to words said by Benito Ferrero-Valdiera.

    Speaking at «Caspian Outlook-2008» forum in town of Bled (Slovenia),
    the EU Commissioner for Foreign Affairs Benito Ferrero-Valdiera
    called Georgia and Azerbaijan to retrain from increasing the warfare
    budget.

    Mirzazadeh said this demand was not possible to accept as `20% of
    Azeri grounds have been occupied by Armenians and Georgia is
    currently unable to control is two autonomous entities. History shows
    that a country under occupation shall increase its military budget.
    Nevertheless, Azerbaijan's military budget totals 8 percent against
    30 percent in Armenia», he said.

    Mirzazadeh also said the EU Commissioner's opinion on Azerbaijan is
    not clear. «The Commissioner says nothing of Armenia's collaboration
    with the EU but much of some claims to Azerbaijan», he underlined.
