The NKR Defense Army carried out a special operation in the place
where the helicopter had been shot down on November 12 and retrieved
the bodies of pilots and parts of the helicopter. During the operation
two Azerbaijani soldiers were killed, there were no losses on the
Armenian side.
For 10 days Azerbaijan did not allow to get close to that place. The
Armenian side refrained from actions, trying to resolve the problem
through the diplomatic channel, applying to the OSCE Minsk Group, the
Red Cross and other relevant organizations. There were statements
urging Azerbaijan to get close to the site. The OSCE CiO personal
representative Kasprzyk announced that he cannot visit the place where
the helicopter had been shot down because there are no guarantees of
security and he fears for his own security.
The RA Minister of Defense had announced that the Armenian side will
try to resolve the issue through the diplomatic channel, adding that
other means remain valid. The other means would be actions after
which, according to the commander of the NKR Defense Army Movses
Hakobyan, the Azerbaijanis would not come round for a long time.
Azerbaijan did not allow access to the helicopter, keeping the bodies
as hostages, apparently hoping that thus the Armenian side would
refrain from counteractions and it would get guarantees and try to get
back its saboteurs who are being tried in Stepanakert in exchange for
the helicopter crew.
Yesterday the Armenian side clearly stated that they were not going to
exchange the saboteurs while the NKR Defense Army announced that the
defense army does not allow the Azerbaijanis to get close to the crew.
Apparently, the Azerbaijanis have attempted to retrieve the crew and
important parts of the helicopter thus gaining an advantage. The NKR
Defense Army carried out a special operation and thwarted the attempt
of the Azerbaijan.
The Armenian army again demonstrated its political and military
maturity, the skill of planning and implementing operations, which
raises its importance in regional processes. The Armenian army thus
remains the only organization which is capable of making independent
decisions.
This operation of the Armenian army can teach a lesson to the other
agencies how not to be afraid of sovereign decisions. The world
respects those who can make such decisions, which became obvious
during the war in August.
This action of the army is valuable because if the Armenian side
enjoyed obvious international political support in August, now the
army acted in a different situation when the Armenian and Azerbaijani
sides were "equal". This underlines the importance of the operation.
Was this operation the very answer the military leadership was talking
about? Or will there be other blows after which Azerbaijan will not
come round? Both are possible.
