AZERBAIJAN BLIND TO ARMENIAN ARMY'S MIGHT - DEFENSE MINISTER
11:45 * 06.08.14
The Azerbaijani forces keep infiltrating through the border positions
of Armenia without seeing the commanders of a triumphant army,
Armenia's minister of defense has said, addressing the past days'
border incidents.
"They do not realize that our Armed Forces are today replenished with
commanders of a triumphant army , who share their experience with
the younger generation," Seyran Ohanyan said at a news conference,
extending his condolences to the families of the servicemen killed
in the recent fatal shoot-outs.
The minister said that the Armenian army subdivisions have managed to
avert over 20 attempted subversive acts along the border. "We cannot,
naturally, disclose all the operations along the border, also for
security considerations," Ohanyan explained.
Speaking further of the officers and soldiers killed during the
defense operations, the minister described them as glorious heroes
whose service helped prevent the Armenian side's retreat from the
defense positions.
Ohanyan noted with regret that Azerbaijan, whose military leadership
incurs the burden of responsibility for the heavy bloodsheds, never
appreciates a soldier's true worth.
"I am proud today of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia. I
am proud that such a responsibility is placed on me; that's the
feeling I have received from the soldiers and officers who realize
the tasks set before them. No medal or honor can replace [the support]
we receive from our people standing behind the rear," he added.
