Armenia’s response to Azerbaijan’s Aliev’s military oriented statement
has been inadequate. "That was a sort of threat and President’s
speaker’s statement that if renewed war starts we’ll recognize the
independence of Nagorno-Karabakh was weak. We should declare that if
military activities are initiated we’ll encourage our people to get
united," Giro Manoyan, the director of ARF Cause Office Yerevan told
at news conference. It’s worth reminding that Azerbaijan’s President
threatened a renewed war to start if Munich presidential meeting
recorded no advancement. "Azerbaijan’s President’s military statements
just prove Azerbaijan’s deconstructive disposition. We should state
that Armenia has not recognized the independence of Nagorno-Karabakh
just leaving it to be resolved through peaceful negotiations. And if
peaceful negotiations are aborted nothing will keep Armenia from
recognizing NKR’s independence." ARF representative encourages
initiating strong activities to meet the challenge of the time.
