ARMENIA DOES NOT WANT ARMENIAN AND AZERI SOLDIERS TO
DIE: DEFENSE MINISTER
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS: `We want peace
on our borders, we do not want skirmishes, we do not
want Armenian and Azerbaijani servicemen to die, `
Armenian defense minister Mikael Harutunian said today
during a ceremony marking the 16-th anniversary of
Armenia's independence.
He said whenever Azeris violate the truce by firing
on Armenian positions they get adequate retaliation.
He also swept aside media speculations claiming that
the situation on the line of contact is getting worse.
He said the amount of skirmishes is down 40 percent
now.
`In all likelihood, Azerbaijani authorities want
their nation to be vigilant and that is why they stir
up skirmishes and put the blame on the Armenian side,'
he said.
