AZERBAIJAN SERIOUS ABOUT AIR SPACE DEFENSE
30 January 2013 – 7:00pm
The recent statements concerning Azerbaijani air space are not jokes,
the country’s defense ministry underlines. That is the body’s official
response to the CSTO chief’s statement.
Nikolay Bordyuzha, the secretary general of the Collective Security
Treaty Organization, said yesterday the statement saying that
Azerbaijan will down planes flying over Karabakh without its official
permission was probably a joke or was misinterpreted.
Azerbaijan is serious about defending its air space, the defense
ministry’s spokesman Eldar Sabiroglu says.
“It is not a joke. We will take all the necessary measures in case
of unauthorized flights over our territory,” he said.
