Nikol Pashinyan: The severe yet heroic course of the war gives us confidence - Artsakh will stay strong
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan addressed the nation on Tuesday, speaking of the war unleashed against Artsakh Republic.
"The Turkish-Azerbaijani forces have been waging a war against Artsakh and the Armenians for a month now. During this period, thousands of shells, rockets fell on the Artsakh Army and the peaceful population, thousands of drones were launched. The adversary has attacked with tanks, helicopters, warplanes, with Azerbaijanis, mercenaries, Turkish and Pakistani special forces," Pashinyan said.
"A month ago, they were tasked to quickly conquer Artsakh, destroy and bring it to knees.Yet today, although wounded, Artsakh stays strong. And this is first thanks to the heroic Army, heroic people and heroic individuals. This severe, yet heroic course gives us the confidence that Artsakh will stay strong, since our spirit is strong, our will is unshakeable," stated Pashinyan.
In the words of the Prime Minister, the war has entered a phase when its every moment has led the adversary to stagnation, breaking its illusions.
Pashinyan said that the enemy is awaiting for the news of Artsakh collapse every day, every second and expecting to hear about its final and irreversible victory. "The Azerbaijani public will never get that news and the permanent expectation of that news is something that will destroy the Azerbaijani aspirations of conquering Artsakh," said the PM.
"The people of Artsakh, the Armenian people will fight with boundless dedication for every tree, every stone, every centimeter and millimeter. And at the right moment, the accurate counterstrike will have an effect of devastating collapse for the adversary" stated Pashinyan.
