The Armenian side tries to prevent shooting at the
Armenian-Azerbaijani border but will reply to firing from the
Azerbaijani side, said the Armenian minister of defense Michael
Harutiunyan on Friday.

"I have always stated that we want to sustain peace, we don’t want
shooting and casualties neither on the Armenian, not on the
Azerbaijani sides but if they shell our positions and roads, they will
certainly get a reply," Harutiunyan said.

He also added that the situation at the line of contact is not
critical because the cases of shooting have decreased by 40 percent.
