Azerbaijani MP: Military parade in Armenia is a joke

22 September 2011 [10:31] - TODAY.AZ
Military parade held in honor of Armenia's independence day simply makes laughs, Azerbaijani MP Aydin Mirzazade told Trend.

"The old technique, non-combatant steps showed only a weak visibility of the army, which is an attribute of an independent state today. The parade left such an impression. Those that the agitation machine of Armenia has been telling about the military parade for a long time were untrue. It was a weak and poor-quality parade. The Armenian army is weak, and the parade showed the old technique," said Mirzazade.

The MP said part of technique, demonstrated in the parade, does not belong to Armenia. "If Armenia would not conduct such a parade, then it would have higher image," he said.

Mirzazade said conducting the parade was wrong from a political point of view. Participation of military units of Russia, located in Armenia, in the parade casts doubt on the independence of Armenia as a state.

"Participation of military units of "independent Artsakh", which calls itself the army of the so-called "independent state" and consists of people living in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, in the parade once again showed that Armenia is an occupant country with a weak military and political ideology that does not meet today's requirements," said the MP.
