At the moment positions of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh are not
weakened, on the contrary our positions have strengthened in military
and diplomatic spheres, Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan said
at the November 17 meeting with university conscripts.
According to him, Azerbaijan's positions are weakening as it does not
fulfill commitments to international community. Instead of advancing
the Karabakh peace process, Baku is trying to shift resolution of
the conflict in military field.
Ohanyan stressed that Aliyev's warlike statements are first of all
intended for Azerbaijani society.
The Minister noted that the Armenian armed forces maintain balance
to Azerbaijani ones due to qualitative but not quantitative indicators.
"We are increasing readiness of the Armed Forces, military spirit of
the staff, strengthening combat efficiency of the army and Armenia's
security," he noted, adding that the Armenian side has all methods
to neutralize quantitative superiority of the opponent.
However, this is not an indicative of not buying modern
military equipment, he added. "Armenian leadership headed by the
Commander-in-Chief, President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan, is working
in this direction," he stressed.
