/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Large-scale hostilities between the NKR and Azeri
armies are unlikely at present, the Armenian Defense Minister said.

"First, we do our utmost to resolve the problem peacefully. Second, the
balance of forces namely the efficiency of Karabakhi army, excludes any
possibility of military operations," he said. "Although the Azeri armed
forces are preparing for war, the military and political situation
speaks out for a peaceful resolution of the conflict," he said.

"The armed forces of Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh are ready for
military activities, the more so because the Republic of Armenia is
the guarantor of NKR’s security," he resumed, RIA Novosti reports.
