    Border clashes not to lead to new war - Armenian MPs

    Yerevan, 10 June: The recent incidents on the border caused by the
    Azerbaijani military's intention to move their positions deep into
    the heart of Armenian territory will not bring about a resumption of
    large-scale hostilities.

    A Mediamax parliamentary correspondent reports that representatives
    of the political forces included in the ruling coalition stated this
    in Yerevan today.

    Speaking at a briefing today, Gagik Melikyan, leader of the faction
    of the Republican Party of Armenia, noted that Azerbaijani President
    Ilham Aliyev's recent statements have a less aggressive nature.

    At the same time, the parliamentarian said that from time to time,
    the Azerbaijani military takes actions directed at destabilizing the
    situation. In particular, Melikyan said that during recent strikes
    on the village of Berdaber in Armenia's Tavush District, the enemy
    attempted to seize the water reservoir of the village.

    For his part, Levon Lazarian, a member of the Dashnaktsutyun
    parliamentary fraction, noted that "all such actions by the Azerbaijani
    military are doomed to failure".
