No threat of war, Armenian President states
19:03 / 04/09/2010A threat of war has been and will remain until peace
has been established in the region, RA President Serzh Sargsyan stated
during his visit to the Tavush region, Armenia. He expressed
confidence that there is no immediate threat of war.
`I do not see an imminent threat of war through I have repeatedly
stated that the Ministry of Defense must lays be ready for war. That
is why our ministry is working from morning to night. We have an
efficient army, and should it happen, they will not surprise us,’ he
said.
`Such threats become serious for our people in two cases. First, not
seeing any other way, Azerbaijan tries to show an excessively militant
mood. Secondly, certain forces try to cash in on it,’ Sargsyan said.
He does not understand the media outlets asking the following
question: `Which of the officials will go to war?’ `It is a matter of
human qualities. I am sure there will be Opposition members that will
war on the front line, and there are officials that will run away,’
the Armenian President said.
