Artsrun Hovhannisyan: Azerbaijan admits to making provocations
"The Azerbaijani FM’s statement is cynical and irresponsible. In fact, Azerbaijan confessed that it has been instigating border incidents," military expert Artsrun Hovhannisyan told Panorama.am, commenting on Elmar Mammadyarov’s statement that “if Armenia doesn’t want its soldiers to die, it must withdraw from the Azerbaijani lands.”
Azerbaijan admits to instigating border incidents to press the Armenian side as well as international organizations, said the expert.
“But most importantly, Azerbaijan’s confession substantiates the view that Azerbaijan does not care about its soldiers’ security. It has been proved repeatedly that Azerbaijan suffers more casualties in such incidents, however, Mammadyarov confesses that Azerbaijan does not give a damn about its soldiers,” stressed Hovhannisyan.
