Baku. Rashad Suleymanov-APA. "In the third ten-day of April every
year, Armenians become more active and try to commit diversion in
the frontline. This year is likely to be not an exception," warned
Major-general Dadash Rzayev, Azerbaijan’s ex-minister of defense and
chairman of the Confederation of Officers in Reserve.
He attributed Armenians’ awakening to the so-called false "Armenian
genocide" that is marked in the third ten-day of April. "From my
experience, I can say Armenians make attempts not only violate the
cease-fire but also to give Azerbaijani side the maximum damage,"
he noted. According to him, Azerbaijani Armed Forces is capable of
repelling any diversion and attacks. He says Armenian Government may
decide to repeat the diversion again they did in early March this
year to divert attention from riots in Yerevan. Eldar Sabiroghlu,
Press secretary of Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry, said Armenian Armed
Forces have started to violate the cease-fire regularly. He added
that Azerbaijan’s armed Forces stand ready to repel any diversion or
attack by he enemy. "If they make such an attempt, they will get a
deserving retaliatory response," he added.
