On August 3-10 Armenian armed forces with so-called Karabakh Army ran
military maneuvers in Nagorno Karabakh, Turan reported on Wednesday.
The maneuvers consisted of three stages – to bring armed forces to
alertness, to prepare and then realize combat operations.
Armenian military units participated in the final stage of the
maneuvers, which aimed to train the armed forces to defeat
conventional enemies. The final stage of maneuvers completed on
August 10 in Aghdam, the Azerbaijani district occupied by Armenian
forces.
The maneuvers ran under the observation of Armenian Defense Minister,
Serj Sarkisyan and leaders of so-called Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
`One of the main purposes of the maneuvers was to bring the armed
units ready for military operations as much as possible,’ said Seyran
Oganian, Commander of so-called Karabakh troops. `Our enemy purchases
new types of armaments and develops its army. The party building arms
and accomplishing assigned tasks more correctly, will win.’
Concerning the possibility of resumption of military operations in
Karabakh, Sarkisyan said that in the nearest future Armenia doesn’t
have any plans to stop the military actions.
