Turkic Council Monthly News Bulletin – May – June 2012 Prepared by Turkic Council Secretariat
TURKIC COUNCIL MONTHLY NEWS BULLETIN – MAY – JUNE 2012 PREPARED BY TURKIC COUNCIL SECRETARIAT Azerbaijan “No one favors current status-quo in Nagorno-Karabakh conflict” May 16 (AzerTAc). No one favored the current status-quo in Nagorno- Karabakh conflict, the chairperson of US House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs Ileana Ros-Lehtinen said. Ros-Lehtinen underlined that Azerbaijan`s role is increasing in exploration, development and transportation of energy resources. She welcomed diversification of energy transportation, and stressed that Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline has become a main transportation route which supplies the world with fuel. “It creates opportunity for the country to diversify the energy sources and our allies to avoid some dependence. New routes such as Nabucco will contribute to increase the strategic importance of Azerbaijan”, Ros- Lehtinen stated. Ros-Lehtinen pointed out importance of expansion of economic and trade ties between the countries, and said that the third meeting within the framework of the US-Azerbaijan partnership held in Washington brought new initiatives to civil aviation. The Committee chairperson described Azerbaijan as a `significant` partner of the US in the fight against force and extremism, and highlighted that there is a close cooperation between the US and Azerbaijan not only in the fields of prevention of terrorist attacks, but also proliferation of biological and nuclear weapons. “We are satisfied particularly with the exercises conducted for the security of the Caspian Sea”. Ros-Lehtinen also expressed concern over the incidents occurred in the border areas with Nagorno- Karabakh. “Two Azerbaijani soldiers were killed tragically in the shooting. Use of force remains this prolonged conflict unsettled”, added Ros-Lehtinen. -

Kazakhstan Nuclear Chronology
Kazakhstan Nuclear Chronology 2010 | 2009-2000 | 1999-1990 Last update: August 2010 This annotated chronology is based on the data sources that follow each entry. Public sources often provide conflicting information on classified military programs. In some cases we are unable to resolve these discrepancies, in others we have deliberately refrained from doing so to highlight the potential influence of false or misleading information as it appeared over time. In many cases, we are unable to independently verify claims. Hence in reviewing this chronology, readers should take into account the credibility of the sources employed here. Inclusion in this chronology does not necessarily indicate that a particular development is of direct or indirect proliferation significance. Some entries provide international or domestic context for technological development and national policymaking. Moreover, some entries may refer to developments with positive consequences for nonproliferation. 2010 16 June 2010 It was announced that plans for a joint uranium enrichment center (UEC) between Kazakhstan and Russia located at the Angarsk Electro-Chemical Combine were dropped due to lack of economic feasibility. Reportedly, Kazakhstan may instead buy shares in one of Russia's four already operating enrichment centers. The UEC is separate from the international uranium enrichment center (IUEC) already operating in Angarsk. IUEC, created with the IAEA's approval, is meant to provide uranium enrichment for civilian purposes to states party to the NPT. Kazakhstan and Russia are already partners at the IUEC, with Rosatom owning 90%. Ukraine and Armenia are expected to join the project. — Judith Perera, "Change of plan on Kazakh uranium enrichment," McCloskey Nuclear Business, 16 June 2010. -
