points to Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA)
Security Affairs Department officers who have responsibility
for coordinating the Azerbaijani Government's response to
UNSCRs 1737 and 1747. MFA officers said that Azerbaijan had
formed a UNSCR 1737 working group and that the group's first
meeting had been held on February 23, at the MFA. This
working group includes numerous Azerbaijani government
ministries, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the
Ministry of National Security, the Ministry of Defense,
Customs Committee, Border Service, Ministry of Finance,
National Bank, and others. At the meeting, the working group
discussed the interpretation of UNSCR 1737, specifically how
Azerbaijan would interpret several of the vague passages.
Since the initial meeting, the UNSCR 1737 working group has
been moved to the authority of deputy Prime Minister Yagub
Eyyubov in the Council of Ministers. Because Azerbaijan's
1737 committee had only been able to meet on February 23 and
the "60-day report" was due on February 24, Azerbaijan asked
the UN for an extension of the deadline, and informed the UN
that they would report both on 1737 and 1747 together. Since
the passage of 1747, the 1737 working group will expand to
include the UNSCR 1747, which MFA officers said was more
"watered down" and subject to interpretation.
