  Azerbaijan warns Iran over airspace breach
26/02/2007 21:59

Azerbaijan has issued an official warning to Iran over a breach of 
Azerbaijani airspace by Iranian helicopters accompanying Iranian 
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a senior official said on Monday.

  Azerbaijan "informed Iranian authorities of the violation of 
Azerbaijani territory by helicopters from that country, and Iran has 
been sent an official warning," said Elchin Guliyev, head of 
Azerbaijan's border guard service.


Guliyev told reporters the incident had taken place on February 22 when 
five helicopters accompanying Ahmadinejad crossed into Azerbaijani 
airspace several times.

A spokesman for the Iranian embassy in Azerbaijan, Majid Feizullai, told 
AFP that Ahmadinejad had travelled to Astara, a town in northwest Iran 
on the border with Azerbaijan, that day.

Relations between Baku and Tehran have been difficult since Azerbaijan 
broke away from the Soviet Union in 1991, with disputes over oil 
reserves in the Caspian Sea and the status of a large ethnic-Azeri 
minority in Iran.
