Karabakh accuses Azerbaijan of misinformation

Yerevan, 24 March: The Defence Ministry of the Nagornyy Karabakh
Republic [NKR] has denied Azerbaijani allegations of a truce violation
by the Karabakh side on 22 March.

“This information is wide of the mark. The Karabakh side respects and
maintains the cease-fire,” the spokesman for the Defence Ministry of
the Nagornyy Karabakh Republic, Senor Asratyan, told an Arminfo
correspondent. Azerbaijan has got used “to blaming on truce
violations” casualties in its armed forces that happen due to
incidents, he said.

“Whenever a fatal incident takes place in the Azerbaijani army, they
say the culprit is ‘fire from the Armenian side’. In this way, they
are trying to hide from the public their inability to manage their own
army. Azerbaijan has repeatedly attempted to blame these incidents on
the Armenian side, which has nothing to do with truce violations, and
to present the NKR as a violator of the cease-fire in the eyes of the
international community,” Asratyan said.
