    "There is no need to pay attention to Baku's threats regarding a
    military solution to the Karabakh problem. If the hostilities resume,
    Azerbaijan will sustain serious losses," Movses Akopyan, chief of the
    general staff of the defence army of the Nagornyy Karabakh Republic
    (NKR), said in an interview with the republican newspaper Azat
    Artsakh.

    He said that the NKR defence army is getting stronger year by year.
    Large-scale exercises which involve the entire personnel and are meant
    to increase the combat readiness of the troops and learn the resources
    of the army reserve are under way at the moment. Work is under way to
    improve engineering installations. At the same time, the Karabakh army
    chief of staff pointed out that the situation on the contact line
    between the armed forces of Nagornyy Karabakh and Azerbaijan remains
    tense - the war of snipers and sabotage-reconnaissance groups is
    continuing.
