Tensions on the Armenian-Azerbaijani front line are exaggerated,
stated Serge Sargsyan, Minister of Defense of Armenia, on April 11.
"There are always gunshots, you know there are gunshots today, but
there is no difference between today and three months or five months
ago. Even if there is difference, it is more of an easing of tensions,"
announced Serge Sargsyan. For the frequent visits of the OSCE Minsk
Group co-chairs to the region and the possibility of settlement of
the conflict over Karabakh by 2007, the defense minister of Armenia
says it is both possible and impossible.
"There are two answers to this question: yes and no. I cannot see
that the state of things today essentially differs from the state of
things two years ago," says Serge Sargsyan, adding that as a minister
of defense he is prepared in case war starts.
"I have announced a number of times and now I state that the defense
minister of any country, and especially the minister of defense of
Armenia, should assume that the military actions may start tomorrow
or in two days," says Defense Minister Serge Sargsyan.
