Azerbaijan Makes Use of Cheap Moves: Armenia’s Defense Ministry

RA Ministry of Defense press secretary Davit Karapetyan today commented on a statement issued by Azerbaijan’s defense ministry in which it says that an Azerbaijani child died as a result of shots fired by Armenian armed forces on Mar. 8.

“The NKR [Nagorno-Karabakh] Defense Army already refuted this information. The statement by Azerbaijan’s defense ministry is nothing other than an attempt to save their country’s face, which was confounded after the murder of an Armenian soldier by an Azerbaijani sniper on the eve of the Mar. 5 presidents’ meeting in Sochi.

“The Azerbaijani misinformation clerks should realize that such cheap moves not only are not convincing for the international community, but also are shameful, since in this case a young child’s life is being speculated upon and the failed image of a tragic victim is being invented,” he said.
