Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry on Deployment of Armenian Armed Forces in Karabakh
Baku / 04.07.18 / Turan: Armenian media outlets referring to the decision of the government report on the decision to deploy Armenian internal forces in Karabakh.
"This step of the new government of Armenia is a military adventure and serves to aggravate the situation. In violation of international law, most of the personnel and equipment of the armed forces of Armenia are concentrated in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
The deployment of internal troops in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan serves as clear evidence of the deplorable situation in which the Armenian army resides and serious problems in its composition by personnel," the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesman Hikmet Hajiyev said.
In his opinion, all this "once again demonstrates that Armenia is an invader state and official Yerevan is not interested in settling the conflict through negotiations," he said. -02D-
