The MP of the Azerbaijani Parliament, Vahid Ahmadov, informed Trend that presently there are four problems in the Azerbaijan Army. He came to such conclusion after the inspections, observations and visits to the front zone.

According to him, the first problem is linked with providing the officers with apartments. Due to the absence of the service houses or camps for the officers, they are forced to stay away from their families, and this imposes additional problems, he said.

According to Ahmadov, the second problem is the low salary of the officers, especially low salary for officers serving on the front line. Despite that their salary was increased in 2006, it does not cover their needs. Therefore, this question should be considered, Ahmadov said.

The third problem is linked with the attitude of the relevant bodies towards army. Ahmadov said that according to the order of the President, the military units have been divided among the local executive powers. Therefore, the local executive powers should visit the military units and meet with the soldiers and officers, but they do not implement this mission, he said.

He added that the fourth problem is imposed by the attitude of the Military Prosecutor Office towards the army.
