Minister promises "catastrophe" to Azerbaijan
"We try to avoid bellicose statements, yet it does not mean we are not ready to protect our country," Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan announced in Tsitsernakaberd on April 24.
Today Mr. Ohanayan responded to the aggressive statement of Ilham Aliev made on the eve of the 95th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
"Today our army is capable to fulfill its mission- protect the country - and take preventive measures. We should realize one thing: our privilege is that we are trying to solve all problems and conflicts in a peaceful way.
I suppose that those statements have a permanent nature, they aim to exert a psychological pressure both on Armenia and international community, but it's impossible, because if Azerbaijan tries to make a pressure on our nation it will reflect badly over Azerbaijan as well. It will turn into a catastrophe, for we have another advantage as well - we protect our fatherland."
