announcements of President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev.
"We are ready to resist and defeat the armed forces, that would try
to ruffle our people. They would not be able to do a step forward. Be
sure that we are ready for it", M.Arutyan noted.
He also announced that the people of Armenia does not want war, like
the people of Azerbaijan.

conflict and strive for the peaceful resolution of the conflict". the
Defense Minister of Armenia said.
According to Arutyan, if the leadership of Azerbaijan speaks about
20% of the occupied lands and 1 million refugees, it should think
over what it would do in case of a loss of another 20% of lands and
appearance of another 2 million refugees".
"They modernize their armed forces, purchase arms, raise budget. We
see it and, of course, we take measure to raise the military capacity
of our armed forces", Arutyunan said.
