ArmInfo.Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan, assessing the recent actions of Baku aimed at aggravating the situation in Nagorno Karabakh stated that this is another crime of the hereditary Baku regime based on hatred against the neighboring people and the blood of its own people.
"Obviously, Azerbaijan's refusal to implement the mechanism for investigating incidents is aimed at placing responsibility on the Armenian side for the ongoing provocations it is undertaking. Until Azerbaijan fulfills its international obligations under the trilateral agreements on the cessation of hostilities and fire between Azerbaijan, Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia from 1994-1995, it refuses to implement the agreements reached in Vienna and St. Petersburg aimed at strengthening the regime Ceasefire, and continues to initiate armed provocations against Artsakh and Armenia, it is the leadership of Azerbaijan who is responsible for all the victims of these provocations, regardless of their nationality "Kocharian said, responding to the question of" Orakarg "of the public TV of Armenia.
At the same time, referring to the statement of Turkish Foreign Ministry regarding this provocation, Kocharian stated that during the aggression initiated by Azerbaijan in April previous year, Turkey not only did not condemn targeted use of Azerbaijan as a target of the peaceful population of Artsakh, including murder of children, the barbarous dismemberment of the elderly, decapitation in the style of ISIS of captured Armenian soldiers, but, in fact, encouraged these war crimes. "On the other hand, Turkey declares that it condemns the victims among the peaceful Azerbaijani population as a result of the provocation initiated by Azerbaijan, without mentioning that the main reason for this is Baku's policy of using its own civilian population as a human shield. It turns out that the condemnation or condolence for Turkey is conditioned solely by nationality, which is beyond any civilized commentary, " Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia said.
