NKR DEFENSE MINISTRY MAKES STATEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH ANNIVERSARY OF
MURDER OF LIEUTENANT GURGEN MARGARYAN AXED BY AZERBAIJANI OFFICER
RAMIL SAFAROV IN HUNGARY
STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 21. ARMINFO. NKR Defense Ministry has made a
statement in connection with the anniversary of the murder of
Lieutenant Gurgen Margaryan axed by an Azerbaijani officer Ramil
Safarov in Hungary.
According to the statement, Azerbaijan not only has not condemned the
incident, but also has announced Safarov a national hero. The NKR
Defense Ministry assesses the vandalism and the position of the
Azerbaijani authorities as a result of continuing anti-Armenia and
militarist propaganda, the statement says. Such policy creates an
atmosphere of intolerance between the peoples of the conflicting
parties, greatly damaging the peaceful resolution of Karabakh conflict
and threatening to the regional peace and security, the ministry says.
Further in the statement: "Such an image of Azerbaijan, its aspiration
to make a hero of the criminal once more testifies that the
independence of Nagorny Karabakh is an issue of not only
self-determination of peoples but also existence of the people of
NKR. It must be a precondition for any version of the conflict's
settlement. The NKR Defense Army is an important guarantor of regional
stability; and for lack of international peace-making forces in the
tense conflict zone created by Azerbaijan it has a role of a
restraining factor. To further fulfill this mission, NKR Defense Army
will increase its fighting combativity to protect both its
independence and territorial integrity of NKR should need arise."
