Chief of the press-service of the Ministry of National Security of
Azerbaijan Arif Babayev interviewed with APA on the Serzh Sargsyan’s
thought at the meeting of Armenian National Security Service about
the coordination of information war by this organization…

-Frankly speaking this information doesn’t surprise us. I think it
is appearance of the conceptual essence of Armenian state policy,
including information aggression against Azerbaijan. We evaluate it
as Yerevan’s recognition before victory of Azerbaijan’s real and true
tactics of attack on the contrary with the Armenian false, lying and
slanderous information aggression.

Armenian special services planned and organized terrorist-diversionist
attacks against Azerbaijan after it achieved the independence and it
was proved by the operational investigation and judicial rules. As
a result of state terrorism and aggressive separatist policy of
Armenia against Azerbaijan, tens of terrorist attacks were committed
in Azerbaijan and thousands of our citizens were killed and wounded.

Armenian special services committed terrorist attacks against the
railways, navigation and Baku Subway and other significant state-run
facilities to create horror among the peaceful population and to
paralyze the strategic infrastructure for occupation of Azerbaijani
territories. Concrete organizers of those attacks were proved by the
evidences and facts and some of the terrorists were arrested, but
despite that if they work for the Armenian special services even now,
it shows what is the main mission of those bodies.

-What measures are the Azerbaijani special services taking against
the anti-Azerbaijan activity of Armenian relative bodies?

-Generally, the national security organizations together with other
relative government bodies are taking preventive measures against
all possible threats against national interests of Azerbaijan and
continuing this activity.

President and Supreme Commander-in-Chief Mr. Ilham Aliyev is directly
leading the formation and realization of the country’s domestic and
foreign policies for the reliable protection of national interests of
Azerbaijani people and state. The successful implementation of this
strategy, as well as creation of useful environment for the political
course of the country’s leadership toward the solution to the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict is one of the priorities of the Ministry of National
Security. According to the President’s recommendation to keep attacking
position in the Nagorno Karabakh issue, the Ministry of National
Security together with other relative governmental organizations
provides appropriate activity in this direction and carries out
long-term comprehensive measures in the field of information war and
delivering information about the Azerbaijan’s realities to the world,
within its authorities and attacking and sequent tactics.

We all shouldn’t lose our vigilance because we know from the history
that how insidious are our enemies and we should never forget it. We
have to closely unite around President Ilham Aliyev for liberation
of our lands from the occupation and making Azerbaijan strongest and
most developed country.
