YEREVAN, April 19 — Armenian Defense Minister Serzh Sarkisyan does
not think that “a war with Azerbaijan may resume in the near future.”

“Tension on the border between the two republics has slightly eased,
but the general situation is unstable,” Sarkisyan said in the National
Press Club on Tuesday.

The minister said he had always called for settling the Karabakh
problem on the basis of compromises.
