Artsakh president discusses military-political situation with MPs
President of Artsakh Arayik Harutyunyan on Friday held a meeting with representatives of the factions of the Artsakh National Assembly to discuss the current military-political situation and the provisions of the trilateral statement.
“I reaffirmed once again that I appealed to the Armenian prime minister to make efforts to end the hostilities,” he wrote on Facebook.
“The decision was made taking into account the military situation, as the command of the armed forces insisted on its necessity. We had certain serious problems and under those conditions the continuation of the war would lead to greater human and territorial losses, including the fall of [capital] Stepanakert, the blockade of other towns, villages and thousands of servicemen," Harutyunyan said.
