Azerbaijan will not be able to carry out a blitzkrieg in case of
starting the Karabakh war, President of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic
Bako Sahakian said in an interview with 'Azg' paper.
"Naturally the Defense Army is prepared to counteract any
encroachments of the enemy, in particular, to neutralize a blitzkrieg
attempt. Nevertheless, I should note that this scenario is impossible
for a number of reasons. We have a powerful defense system able to
stop such an attack," B. Sahakian noted.
"Secondly, if the enemy attacks Artsakh, this war, too, will be a
patriotic one with the participation of the whole Artsakh and the
Armenian people. In this case it would be impossible to carry out a
blitzkrieg," the NKR president said.
According to Bako Sahakian, Stepanakert airport will be put into
operation after all the problems are solved.
"There are still technical and other problems and it will take some
time to deal with those problems. After their solution, the airport
will start operating," the NKR president said.
He also discussed the demographic growth in the republic. "There has
been an increase in the population in all regions of Nagorno Karabakh,
particularly in Kashatagh region," he said.
The full interview is available in today's issue of 'Azg'.
