Border Guards in Armenia Vyacheslav Biryukov stated today that the
provocations instigated incited on the border with Turkey will be
thwarted on the threshold of April 24.
At the meeting with journalists today, he stressed that the Border
Guard will be actively engaged in activities dedicated to the Armenian
Genocide Centennial.
"First of all, it refers to activities aimed at preventing
provocations on the Armenian-Turkish border. Our employees are ready
for it. We are conducting works along the lines of border
representations and with the Turkish party, so that they rule out
provocations for their part. We also carry out works with the
population of Armenian border regions to exclude any kind of
provocation. It is a political matter, and our task is to protect the
borders, and we will do that", said Vyacheslav Biryukov.
According to him, Turkey persistently resorts to minor violations
during the shoaling of river areas, and "we constantly draw the
attention of border commissioners to it".
He also informed that the employees of the Border Guard detained over
60 state border offenders and over 20 border regime offenders in 2014.
