Defense minister: Armenian military continues to fulfil its tasks

Armenian Defense Minister Suren Papikyan says Armenian troops continue to fulfill their duties in Tavush Province.

"The armed forces continue to fulfill their tasks," the minister told reporters following a closed meeting in the parliament on Wednesday, responding to a question whether Armenia was planning to cede four Tavush villages to Azerbaijan and withdraw its troops from the areas.

"The prime minister addressed all issues yesterday,” the minister noted.

Papikyan refused to answer any other questions.
