The Chairman of the NKR National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign
Relations Vahram Atanesyan told a news conference in Stepanakert
today that "Azerbaijan does not conceal its intention to resolve the
Karabakh issue in a military way."
The press conference was dedicated to the statements of Azeri officials
on holding "anti-terrorist actions" in Nagorno Karabakh.
The parliamentarian noted that the so-called "anti-terrorism action"
is part of the Military Doctrine worked out by Azerbaijan, which has
an obviously aggressive nature and is directed against Armenia and
Nagorno Karabakh.
In Atanesyan’s words, coming forward with the initiative to hold
an "anti-terrorist action," Azerbaijan is trying to confuse the
international community and present Nagorno Karabakh as a terrorist
formation.
"The international community must pay attention to these facts and
undertake necessary measures to prevent the tragic development of
events," the Deputy noted.
"There have not been and there are no terrorists in Nagorno Karabakh.
The security of the country is ensured by the Defense Army effectively
controlled by civil authorities," Vahram Atanesyan underlined.
