WASHINGTON NUMBERED AZERBAIJAN AMONG COUNTRIES HAVING RELATIONS WITH USAMA BIN LADEN
A new list of the countries with «Al-Quaide» terrorist net groups acting has been issued in Washington. Azerbaijan is in the list as usual. It should be pointed out that recently Azerbaijani National Defense Ministry has arrested and deported several terrorists having relations with Usama bin Laden's organization. Meanwhile, according to the Russian press information, Azerbaijan is one of the countries supplying weapons to the «Taliban» movement armed groups. Four countries where as it was earlier thought «Al Quaide» net acted were not included in the new report. They are Ethiopia, Canada, Uruguay and Ecuador.
