    FRANCOIS ROCHEBLOINE: BY DOWNING HELICOPTER AZERBAIJANI REGIME BROKE ITS PROMISE GIVEN FEW DAYS AGO IN PARIS

    12:22 13/11/2014 >> SOCIETY

    Chairman of the France-Karabakh Friendship Circle, French MP Francois
    Rochebloine issued a statement concerning the helicopter of NKR Air
    Forces downed by the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan.

    "France-Karabakh Friendship Circle is aimed at establishing peace
    and dialogue between the peoples of the South Caucasus. Accordingly,
    we condemn this new outbreak of violence. We note that this time,
    as always, it is the doing of the Azerbaijani regime," said the
    Chairman of the France-Karabakh Friendship Circle, French MP Francois
    Rochebloine.

    As Rochebloine notes, France is a country, as well as an OSCE Minsk
    Group co-chair, which took responsibility to assist the parties with a
    view to find a political solution in the Karabakh conflict settlement.

    "On October 27, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, together with
    his Armenian counterpart at the meeting with the French President
    Francois Hollande pledged to take steps to reduce tensions. This
    provocation negates obligations undertaken by Azerbaijan. We hoped that
    Baku will start to act more rationally and constructively after the
    Armenian-Azerbaijani meeting held on 27 October in Paris. Breaking the
    promise given just a few days ago Azerbaijani regime shows that it is
    not a reliable partner in the region," Francois Rochebloine summed up.

    As NKR Defense Ministry press service reported earlier, on November 12,
    at around 1:45 pm, Nagorno Karabakh Air Forces' Mi-24 helicopter was
    shot by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces during military training flight
    in the airspace in the eastern section of Karabakh - Azerbaijan
    Line of Contact. The land, on which the incident occurred, is in
    close proximity to the line of contact. Opponent after the incident
    continued intense bombardment scene from weapons of different caliber.

    The place where the helicopter was shot is close to the Line of
    Contact. The enemy continued to fire shots from weapons of different
    calibers after the incident.

    Meanwhile, the press secretary of Armenian Defense Minister Artsrun
    Hovhannisyan wrote on his Facebook page that Azerbaijani Armed Forces
    have carried out an unprecedented provocation on the border with the
    Republic of Nagorno Karabakh; this has also led to escalation of the
    situation. In the same time the fabrications of the Azerbaijani side,
    as if the Armenian helicopters had attacked their positions and they
    allegedly had merely responded to this step, are senseless. "The study
    of the wreckage of the helicopter will confirm that he was not armed.

    The escalation of the Azerbaijani side has continued even after
    the helicopter fall down. Moreover, the Azerbaijani side continued
    shelling, not allowing even to get closer to the pilots. The
    consequences of this unprecedented escalation will be very harmful
    for the Azerbaijani side and will remain as a stain on the conscience
    of the military-political leadership of Azerbaijan. Captain of the
    helicopter was Major Sergei Sahakyan. Information about the fate of
    the crew will be given later," Artsrun Hovhannisyan stated.
