Azerbaijan's Defense Minister Safar Abiyev will not take part in NATO-initiated events in Brussels to be held in the administrative building of NATO on June 12-13.

Novosti-Azerbaijan reports that the due announcement was made by spokesman for the Defense Ministry of Azerbaijan Eldar Sabiroghlu.
He said defense ministers of the NATO member-states and supporters, who keep peacekeeping forces in Kosovo will participate in the event.
"As the political situation in the Balkans has changed and Azerbaijan withdrew its forces from Kosovo, Safar Abiyev considered it inexpedient to take part in the said event", said the spokesman.
