We should consider ourselves as soldiers of the Defense Army - Robert Kocharyan
Armenia's second President Robert Kocharyan has commented on the military actions against Artsakh unleashed by Azerbaijan. "Today, the enemy has again unleashed a war against Artsakh. With the explicit military and political support of Turkey, Azerbaijan tries to solve the Karabakh conflict through military means," Kocharyan said in a statement.
"It is not time yet to speak of the reasons for such an cynical behavior by Azerbaijan. Our sacred duty is now to protect the motherland. All of us should consider ourselves as a soldier of the Defense Army, stay ready, united and once again, as it happened in 1992-94, destroy the enemy by a combined force. I am confident, the Armenian Forces, unanimously backed by the world-spread Armenians are capable to protect the Republic of Artsakh and secure a victory" the former president added.
