    Minister of Defense of the Republic of Artsakh Movses Hakobyan said
    that the NKR Defense Army is efficient and is able to fulfill tasks.

    "May 12 marks 16 years of the ceasefire agreement between NKR and
    Azerbaijan. Serious incidents have not been recorded at the contact
    line of the armed forces up to date," the Defense Minister told
    journalists in Nagorno Karabakh.

    "The Azerbaijani army just wants to remind of itself through opening
    fire at the contact line of the armed forces," Mr. Hakobyan said.

    Referring to the OSCE Minsk Group activity, he stated that it acts
    within the framework of its competence and it is a consultative body.

    A PanARMENIAN.Net reporter quoted Hakobyan as saying that the Minsk
    Group is well aware of which side is violating the ceasefire regime.

    As for the possibility of peacekeeping forces' stationing in Karabakh,
    Movses Hakobyan said that Stepanakert treats negatively such
    statements. "The NKR Defense Army is able to control the situation
    and secure the country," the Minister said, adding that NKR will
    prevent presence of foreign forces in the region.
