On the historic day when Artsakh proclaimed its independence, the enemy spared no effort to target our positions, Commander of Kornidzor detachment Ara Khudaverdyan, best known as Aro from Kornidzor, said today.
He says those actions marked the beginning of further attacks on Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh by Azerbaijan and its allies. “”During that period, we acquired Nagorno-Karabakh, the powerful “ego” of Armenians, laid grounds for our army, which later became the Armenian Army,” he said.
Speaking about the current situation on the border, Ara Khudaverdyan ruled out large-scale operations by Azerbaijan. “The existing military and political criteria are not in the interests of Azerbaijan. Should Azerbaijan dare to attack Artsakh and Armenia again, Azerbaijan will lose itself completely and flee from there taking with it only “jan” from Azerbaijan,” he said.
