YEREVAN. - The cases of violation of ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh
region were so numerous in 2010 that one could say the ceasefire
does not exist, Armenian military expert David Jamalyan said in the
interview to Armenian news- News.am.
According to Jamalyan ceasefire violations by Azerbaijan do no aim
to provoke the Armenian side into military counteractions and launch
a new war.
"Indeed, Azerbaijan increases the tension, but it pursues different
goal, that is a psychological pressure. I do not think Azeri ruling
elite made any decision regarding the outbreak of military campaign.
The sole aim of this strain is to force unilateral concessions on
Armenia. Azerbaijan will seek further escalation of tension." said
Jamalyan. "In a sense, this is inevitable in the nearest future and
Armenian side must not succumb to provocations but respond sensibly
and appropriately."
The data indicates the increase of ceasefire violation cases on behalf
of Azerbaijan. In 2006 there were about 600 violations of the truce
by Azerbaijan, in 2007 there were about 1500, in 2008 about 3500, in
2009 about 4600, and in 2010 approximately 7,300 violations from the
Azeri side. The four months of this year saw 3500 cases of ceasefire
violations.
On May 1994 the indefinite tripartite agreement on the establishment
of ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh region came into force.
