Armenian opposition MP Tigran Abrahamyan has reacted to the latest Azerbaijani ceasefire violations on the border with Armenia near the village of Yeraskh, deploring the Armenian government’s conciliatory policy towards Baku.
"Amid the Armenian authorities' unilateral concessions, Azerbaijan has decided that they can act as they please," Abrahamyan, secretary of the Pativ Unem faction, wrote on Facebook on Wednesday. "Thus, Azerbaijan is trying to dictate its will [to Armenia] by escalating the situation near Yeraskh."
Two foreign nationals were injured on Wednesday after Azerbaijani forces opened fire on a metallurgical plant under construction in Yeraskh, the Defense Ministry of Armenia said.
The Armenian combat positions and civilian facilities in the area also came under Azerbaijani gunfire on Tuesday.
“Experience shows that the more the authorities announce their readiness to make new concessions, the sharper Azerbaijan’s aggression increases," Abrahamyan stated.
