Yerevan, 29 December: President of the Nagornyy Karabakh Republic
(NKR) Bako Sahakyan stated that "the Defence Army not only surely
defends the borders of our republic, not in case of necessity may
also take the military actions into the depth of the country, which
starts the aggression, and force it to peace".
Mediamax reports that NKR President said this on December 27, speaking
at the session of the Military Council of NKR Defence Army.
Bako Sahakyan noted that in 2008 "we managed not only to protect,
but also to greater extent consolidate the borders of our country,
increase the combatant efficiency of the Defence Army, improve the
social-living conditions of the military, solve a number of issues
related to security".
"The aggressive and anti-Armenian policy by Azerbaijani
authorities, the excessive increase of military expenses, the
frequent ceasefire violations oblige us to be more cautious and
consistent in consolidating the defence capacity of the country,"
NKR President stressed.
"NKR Defence Army is strong, combat-ready and always ready to stop
any infringement of the enemy. The best evidence to this was the
neutralization of the enemy's provocations in March and November of
2008 by our military," Bako Sahakyan stated.
NKR President noted that the successful conclusion of the latest
attack exercise showed that "the Defence Army not only surely protects
the borders of our republic, but in case of necessity may also take
the military actions into the depth of the country, which starts
aggression, and force it to peace".
"However, we should continue being watchful and should not allow
the enemy even thinking about taking the initiative into its hands
or dictating us its will. Everyone should once and for all understand
that the independence and the security of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
is not subject to speculations," Bako Sahakyan stated.
