Yerevan: Murder of soldier in Artsakh by Azerbaijani Armed Forces is  a regular provocation aimed at escalating situation in region

ArmInfo. The responsibility for  all possible consequences of the regular provocation should be solely  beared by the Azerbaijani side, official Yerevan gave such a response  to death of Armenian soldier yesterday in Artsakh as a result of  violation of ceasefire by Azerbaijan, the press-service of the  Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia informs.

 ''Yesterday night,  in the line of contact between Artsakh and Azerbaijan an Armenian  soldier has been shot dead as result of gross violation of a  ceasefire regime. We express our deep condolences to relatives and  fellow servicemen. We have repeatedly stated that creating the  environment conducive to peace is of key importance in  Nagorno-Karabakh peace process.  Such actions of the Azerbaijani side  are, actually, pursuing the opposite goal. The responsibility for all  possible consequences of this provocation should be solely beared by  the Azerbaijani side'', stated Spokesperson of the Ministry of  Foreign Affairs of Armenia Tigran Balayan.  We consider this action,  committed on the eve of the OSCE Minsk group Co-Chairs' visit to  Armenia, as another provocation by Baku aimed at aggravating the  situation and the agreements on tension reduction. This incident once  again emphasizes the importance of implementing the trilateral  ceasefire agreements with no time limitations of 1994-1995, as well  as the implementation of agreements on the mechanism of investigation  of incidents at the contact line reached at the Summits on Nagorno  Karabakh conflict in 2016-2017 and on expanding the capacities of the  OSCE Chairman-in-Office's personal representative.  At the same time  he stressed that Yerevan considers this action, committed on the eve  of the OSCE Minsk group Co-Chairs' visit to Armenia, as another  provocation by Baku aimed at aggravating the situation and the  agreements on tension reduction.
