    Armenian army ready to respond to Azerbaijani military - Defense Ministry

    YEREVAN. June 4


    The Armenian armed forces are strictly observing the ceasefire regime
    established with Azerbaijan, Armenian Defense Ministry press officer
    David Karapetyan told Interfax on Saturday.

    "Azerbaijan is really increasingly violates the reconciliation regime
    every day and tries to accuse Armenia of doing so. However, the
    republic's armed forces are able to give an appropriate response to
    Azerbaijan's provocations," Karapetyan said.

    Karapetyan said Azerbaijan's policies are destined to fail "because it
    is difficult to explain to the international community why Armenia is
    interested in constantly fuelling tensions and violating the peace
    regime," he said.

    "I think that by disseminating misinformation Azerbaijan is preparing
    ground for new provocations," he said.

    Azerbaijani Defense Ministry press officer earlier accused the
    Armenian administration of constantly disrupting the peace
    negotiations on the settlement of the Nagorny Karabakh conflict, which
    makes a war inevitable.

    "Eventually, Azerbaijani soldiers will meet the expectations of the
    people, the government, and the supreme commander-in-chief and will
    liberate the occupied land from the enemy," Sabiroglu told a press
    conference organized in an Azerbaijan military units stationed near
    the frontline.

    Azerbaijan is preparing for this, Sabiroglu said. "The enemy should
    know that," he said.

    Sabiroglu said the Azerbaijani army's combat preparedness is now much
    better than the Armenian army's.

    Sabiroglu accused Armenia of dragging out a peaceful solution to the
    conflict and fuelling tensions on the line of contact of the Armenian
    and Azerbaijani troops, including by provocations such as the recent
    killing of a 9-year old Azerbaijani boy, who was killed in the yard of
    his home in the are located close to the frontline.

    The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry official's press conference was
    organized after a visit by a group of Azerbaijani parliamentarians,
    members of the public, and journalists to the frontline area to become
    familiar with the situation there and the level of combat preparedness
    of the Azerbaijani armed forces.
