YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 16, ARMENPRESS. Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the German Bundestag Michael Roth condemned the latest attack of Azerbaijan on Armenia’s territories.

“Good that with the negotiating efforts of the United States and the European Union a ceasefire has been achieved. I condemn the Azerbaijani attack on Armenia’s state territories. This decades-long conflict must be solved through peaceful negotiations, not by weapons. Azerbaijan obviously, taking advantage of Russia’s weakness, is trying to push forward its territorial interests. We should not leave Armenia on Russia. The EU should take the role of a leader in the establishment of peace and support the democracy of Armenia” the Bundestag lawmaker said on Twitter.

On September 13, starting at 00:05, the Azerbaijani armed forces launched a major military attack in several directions against Armenia, primarily using artillery and UAVs. 105 Armenian troops were killed and 6 civilians were wounded in the Azerbaijani attack.

On September 14 Armenia’s Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan said that ceasefire has been reached thanks to the involvement of the international community.
