PanARMENIAN.Net - Defense army of Nagorno Karabakh currently occupies
positions that provide advantage over the enemy, Armenian military
expert said.
As David Jamalyan told a press conference, the contact line between
Artsakh and Azerbaijani forces presently is quite close to the
strategic targets, which sparks Azeri concerns.
"The counterattack scenario and switching the hostilities to the
enemy's territory is considered during Karabakh army maneuvers.
Azerbaijanis will be forced to overcome the mountains to the North and
South of Artsakh on the one hand, and Arax River, on the other hand,
which complicates the use of advantages. As for the Eastern plains
of the contact line, a strong defensive line was constructed during
the armistice, which will allow to repel enemy attack and continue
the offensive up to Kura River," the expert said.
Mr. Jamalyan further noted that Karabakh defense army has achieved
tangible progress since its formation, continuing to advance positions
unless it gets full advantage.
"Artsakh army reforms, particularly inclusion of brave and skilled
commanders is also worth mentioning. Such personnel are vital to
boosting morale and defense capacity of the army," the expert said.
