Armenia will not take part in any large-scale regional projects in the energy sector or transport unless its forces pull out of Azerbaijani lands, President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan said in an interview with Turkish mass media, the text of which was released Saturday night by the official news agency Azertac. He said it in the context of peace settlement of the dragged out conflict in Karabakh, a mostly Armenian-populated enclave of Azerbaijan where tensions have been flaring with a variable degree of intensity from the end of the 1980’s. This country views settlement of that conflict only in the light of maintaining its own territorial integrity, Aliyev said.TBILISI WELCOMES U.S. FUTURE ROLE IN S.OSSETIA SETTLEMENT

Revaz Adamia, who is Georgia\'s ambassador to the UN, has written to the UN Security Council to request a full-fledged UN peacekeeping mission for Abkhazia. Adamia argued that the Russian peacekeeping force deployed under the auspices of the CIS is ineffective, and he accused Russia of the \"military annexation\" of a part of Georgia\'s territory. Adamia further deplored as \"cultural genocide\" the Abkhaz authorities\' refusal to condone the use of Georgian as the language of instruction in schools in Abkhazia\'s predominantly Georgian-populated Gali Raion.Visit also
