Targeting civilian is an action of terrorist country: Artsakh responds to Azerbajani behavior

Targeting civilian is an action of terrorist country: Artsakh responds to Azerbajani behavior

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 12, ARMENPRESS. Targeting civilian is an act of terrorist and criminal country, Spokesperson of the President of the Artsakh Republic David Babayan expressed such an opinion in the interview with “Armenpress” referring to the murder in Artsakh, committed by Azerbaijani sniper. “Shepherd becomes a targeted person for Azerbaijan: This confirms the fact that we deal with terrorist country, a country which is not entirely different from the “Islamic State” terrorist group. It violates all moral and legal norms.

Azerbaijan announces that it keeps an Armenian hostage which is a rough violation of the international law. In the modern world hostages are kept by terrorists, criminals but they inform about it at the state level. We know what country we deal with but the international community must appropriately react as well. Unfortunately we do not see such reaction,” Spokesperson of the President of the Artsakh Republic David Babayan said. In response to our question whether Azerbaijan tries to divert its public attention from internal affairs, David Babayan noted that this approach has always been noticed by the Azerbaijani authorities.

“There is always the option to divert attention from domestic problems, especially when there are serious socio-economic problems. It is profitable for Aliyev and the ruling elite to give big sacrifices. They turn into a political show showing that the Armenians are enemy of the people and not the corrupt regime,” David Babayan added. Artsakh President’s spokesperson assured the situation on the border is completely controlled by the Armenian armed forces, Azerbaijani soldiers were thrown back and they have a lot of losses. According to David Babayan, as such cases are still repeated; the opponent will receive an appropriate response.

On February 11, at around 16:00 Civillian, resident and pastor of Vazgenashen village in Martuni Region Hakob Hambardsumyan(b. 1962) was shot dead from “Istiglal” rifle, by Azerbajani sniper. Investigation is underway to determine the details of the incident.
