Representatives of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry and
specialists of the Latvian engineering training center have
discussed cooperation, as well as demining issues, Azernews
reports, citing the ministry.
The meeting was held under the bilateral cooperation plan for
2022 at the ministry's International Military Cooperation
Department, the report added.
During the meeting, the visitors were given full information
regarding the mine-clearing work done in the liberated lands
following the 44-day war with Armenia in 2020.
Moreover, a comprehensive discussion on mine and improvised
explosive device neutralization, as well as other issues, took
place between the sides.
Armenia deliberately and constantly planted mines on Azerbaijani
territories, in violation of the 1949 Geneva Convention, thereby
being a major threat to regional peace, security, and
cooperation.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a Russia-brokered peace agreement
on November 10, 2020, to end the 44-day war and work toward a
comprehensive resolution.
