Yerevan, 14 July: The Armenian Foreign Ministry issued a statement
today expressing concern over a large-scale military action in Lebanon
that has caused many casualties.

The statement, which was forwarded to Arminfo by the Foreign Ministry
press and information department, said that Armenia condemns any
manifestation of violence, be it kidnappings or use of military force.

"We think that it is unacceptable to use disproportionate force
devastating infrastructure and civilians. It is difficult to understand
Israel’s action, especially as the Lebanese government has clearly
noted that it has nothing to do with the kidnappings. We hope that
reconciliation will be achieved in the region and the problems will
be resolved through negotiations," the statement of the Armenian
Foreign Ministry said.
