Azerbaijan itself violates the ceasefire regime and sheds crocodile tears all over the world

Yerevan, July 25, ARMENPRESS: During the usual OSCE observation at the Armenian-Azerbaijani border on July 25 the Azerbaijani side again refused the direct meeting. As “Armenpress” reports the representative of the Armenian Defense Ministry Armed Forces General Staff Andranik Mkrtumyan noted in the interview with the journalists that he had given information on the growing ceasefire regime violations by the Azerbaijani side during the separate meeting with the OSCE representatives, as well as discussed the actions of the Azerbaijani subversive groups and the Armenian forced response steps.

“Once again the issue of the frontline snipers’ refrain was discussed, which Azerbaijan strictly refused to fulfill. Despite all these, Azerbaijan sheds crocodile tears for the casualties in the result of our snipers’ response fire”, noted Mkrtumyan.

The latter also stated that the Azeri “heroes” continue to intentionally fire against the peaceful citizens and residences violating the demands of the Geneva Convention and thinking that they will remain unpunished. “We are not afraid of the enemy, we try to maintain the ceasefire as much as possible, and Azeris received and will receive an adequate response by the Armenian soldier”, stressed the General Staff representative of the Armed Forces.

He outlined that the Armenian soldier never fires against the peaceful civilians, but it does not mean the Armenian patience is unlimited. The Colonel has noted to the OSCE representatives that recently a case has been registered when the Azerbaijani peaceful residents attacked their soldier with sticks trying to prevent the fire against the Armenian peaceful people.

During the last month two Armenian peaceful citizens were injured by the Azerbaijani fires, and during the 2012 seven months the Azerbaijani side violated the ceasefire regime about 11 thousand times.
