Baku has proclaimed the occupied sections of Armenia’s territory as “the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan”.

As follows from the statement that Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan Leyla Abdullayeva made in response to the statement that Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan made during the session of the Security Council of Armenia, “Azerbaijani servicemen are performing their official duties in the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan”. In her statement, all the attempts of the Armenian side to resist the obscene encroachments of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces are labeled as ‘provocation’.

The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan emphasized that “the Azerbaijani servicemen are performing their official duties in the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan”, and in any case, recalled that the military and political leadership of Armenia is mainly responsible for the current tension.
