    March 12, 2014 | 18:56

    YEREVAN. - Situation on Armenia-Azerbaijan border is controlled by
    servicemen and there is no reason for concern, Defense Minister Seyran
    Ohanyan said in parliament on Wednesday.

    His response came to the question of Heritage MP concerning situation
    along the line of contact.

    Since the beginning of the year and following January 19 Azerbaijan
    escalated situation on the border, increasing intensification of fire
    on Armenian positions.

    "We must understand that military exercises are planned for the
    beginning of the year. The same happens on the Azerbaijani side. They
    are holding planned military exercises. We must be calm, as situation
    is under control of our armed forces. Moreover, we have recently seen
    intensification of engineering works. Almost 30% of military exercises
    are held in the areas where we would have to hold the line," he said.
