07 March 2008 [16:49] - Today.Az
"Statements of anonymous representatives of "Armenia's armed circles" about the so=called concentration of Azerbaijani armed forces on the contact front line of Azerbaijani and Armenian armed forces, following the incident of March 3-4, is a lie, inspired by the working leadership of Armenia, which tries to mislead the world community about in an attempt to hide the real causes of this provocation by any means and with the help of anonymous representatives of "Armenia's military circles" and, on the other hand, making use of censorship in Armenia and restriction of mass medias, to unite the Armenian society around the Karabakh problem and to support myth on the "invincibility" and "strength" of the Armenian armed forces.
As, after the attack of the Armenian side was resisted with greater losses of the Armenian side, the current powers of Armenia will find it difficult to retain the myth, they have made up on the "strength" of the Armenian armed forces.
The due announcement was made by spokesman for Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry Eldar Sabiroglu commenting on the statement of Armenian armed forces saying that Azerbaijan increases concentration of armed forces on the front line.
He also paid attention to the fact that the versions of the Armenian representatives on the number of Azerbaijani soldiers killed during the clash differ.
"You can judge yourself. Initially, Armenian Foreig minister Vardan Oskanyan who has undertaken the duties of Armenia's Defense Ministry by some unknown reasons, stated great losses from the Armenian side. By this statement Oskanyan proved that there is a conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenian around Nagorno Karabakh and not the conflict between Azerbaijan and the so-called "Nagorno Karabakh Republic".
Later President of Armenia Robert Kocharyan reported death of 8 people from the Azerbaijani side and noted that only 2 people were wounded from the Armenian side. But it is not a complete information. Misleading the whole Armenian community, the next representative of the "Karabakh dynasty", the Defense Minister of the unrecognized "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" Movses Akopyan announced that the number of Azerbaijani servicemen who died during the clash has reached 11 people.
I will not be surprised if in the next announcement any other Armenian official would raise the number of Azerbaijani soldiers up to 11 people.
This is the policy of Armenian leadership which supports the myth on the "strength" of its armed forces and attempts to hide the real consequences of provocations by Armenians on the front line, which occured on March 3-4", Sabiroglu announced.
He also did not rule out that in the near future Armenia may try to repeat the provocations.
"Considering the losses, the Armenians suffered from their own provocation of March 3-4, and not ruling out attempts of Armenia's leadership to consolidate the community of its country around the Karabakh conflict, thus distracting attention from the internal problems in this country, we suppose that Armenian armed forces will repeat provocations on the front line.
But, we recommend them to take a lesson from these events and bear in mind that the next response of the Azerbaijani army can be tougher", Sabiroglu noted.
He also did not rule out the organization of the visit of domestic reporters on the front line for domestic reporters so that representatives of the "fourth power" could see the real state on the front line.
