ArmInfo. Armenia is strengthening security of the state border with
Azerbaijan. Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan said at the government
session in the town of Ijevan, Tavush region, the Defense Ministry has
brought some frontier posts forward on the border with Azerbaijan in
the region of Tavush. Reporting on the results of the combined work
with the Tavush regional administration, the minister said that they
took measures to improve the household conditions of servicemen at
the frontier facilities and to correct the borderline.
"We could echelon our positions in some areas were land is not
cultivated. Mountainous areas and forests create some difficulties
to reduction of space between the posts, however, we have taken some
measures to settle this problem as well," the minister said.
He recalled that 2 attempts of penetration by Azerbaijan subversion
groups had been prevented recently in the area of the village of Koti.
In response to Azerbaijan's sabotages, the Armenian party made
response actions.
"We are raising public awareness of civil defense in the region
considering that in case of possible aggression by Azerbaijan the
greatest part of the region will occur under fine of the enemy,"
the minister said.
