Azerbaijan continues provocations in the contact line with the
connivance of international community
OSCE and the OSCE Minsk Group confine themselves to statements on
`inadmissibility of tension on the contact line' but, as a result,
Azerbaijani units are increasingly attacking the positions of the NKR
Defense Army.
The Azeri side once again violated the ceasefire, thereby declaring
that no statements of mediators or those involved in the Karabakh
conflict are taken into account. For that reason, the snipers kill
Armenian soldiers, and Ilham Aliyev threatens and blackmails the
Nagorno Karabakh Republic and, of course, the international community.

As is customary in recent years, the murder of Armenian servicemen
occurred on the eve of the visit of Lithuanian President to the
region. This coincidence was not accidental, however. Baku quite
uniquely meets representatives of European and world structures. One
may say it has already become a tradition. Neither is it a novelty
that the blame for the breach of ceasefire is shifted onto Armenia.
Most likely, another instance of ceasefire violation will occur ahead
of European Parliament President Jerzy Buzek's visit to the region,
slated for May 18. Azerbaijani provocations should also be expected on
May 9, the day of liberation of Shushi. In every possible way Baku
wants to emphasize that by use of force she is ready to return
Karabakh to Azerbaijan, and she has even thought up a new `temporary'
name for the Republic of Artsakh - the `Internationally Recognized
Territory of Azerbaijan.'
Recent developments on the front line are beginning to cause concern,
since impunity always generates a greater evil. OSCE and the OSCE
Minsk Group confine themselves to statements on `inadmissibility of
tension on the contact line', but, as a result, Azerbaijani units are
increasing their attacks on the positions of the NKR Defense Army.
Azerbaijani provocations, of course, do not remain unpunished. The NKR
army gives an adequate response, but the Azerbaijani side prefers to
remain silent about it. The losses are interpreted as accidents - an
old and tested method of Azerbaijani propaganda. Baku is also used to
blaming Armenian soldiers themselves for the death of Armenian
servicemen. So, in the last incident, head of the Azerbaijani Defense
Ministry press service Eldar Sabiroglu declared that the Armenian
soldiers were killed not by the snipers from the Azerbaijani side, but
as a result of inner clashes.
`These statements are only figment of the impudent imagination of
Sabiroglu. He seems to have mixed it up with the incidents taking
place in the Azerbaijani armed forces. Armenian soldiers were killed
and wounded as a result of the enemy's gunfire,' said Spokesman of the
Defense Ministry of the Republic of Artsakh, Senor Hasratyan. He said
the provocative acts and violations of the ceasefire by Azerbaijan
have always received an adequate response from NKR so that Azerbaijan
is forced to live in constant fear.
Last week there was registered a rapid rise in violations of the
ceasefire on the contact line of the Azerbaijani and NKR forces. From
April 25 to May 1, the Azerbaijani side violated the ceasefire about
350 times.
Over 2700 shots were fired at the positions of the Karabakh forces in
almost all directions of the contact line, of which nearly 1800 were
fired up between 27th to 29th of April, killing two and injuring one
soldier.
`The aggressive actions taken by the armed forces of Azerbaijan in
recent years once again confirm that official Baku does not only
violate the ceasefire agreements reached at various international
levels, but also gives them a more vigorous and uncontrollable
nature,' the statement of the NKR Defense Army press service said.
