News.am, Armenia

Certain media outlets are spreading news that the Azerbaijanis have allegedly seized an Armenian military position in the border sector of Vardenis. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Armenia has sharply refuted the news in a press release provided to the Information Verification Center.

“Not only have the Azerbaijanis failed to seize an Armenian military position, but also, theoretically speaking, they couldn’t seize the military position since there are simply no military positions in the border sector in which the Azerbaijanis tried to ensure advancement. The border sector is simply an open space which, along with the Azerbaijani soldiers in that space, is under the control of the Armenian units,” the General Staff of the Armed Forces clarified.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
