ArmInfo. Member of the Armenian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, Edmond Marukyan, expressed concern over the escalation of the situation in the Karabakh conflict zone from the PACE rostrum. In particular, he stressed that Azerbaijan continues to draw troops and equipment to the front line, pursuing the goal of launching a full-scale war against peaceful Artsakh. "Baku spends billions on modernizing its army, preparing for war.
The Artsakh Armed Forces have recently suppressed several sabotage attempts on the part of the enemy, " said Marukyan, turning to the international community with a demand to stop the military adventures of Baku, otherwise it could turn out to be a tragedy for the entire region.
As an example, he recalled the April war of 2016, which claimed hundreds of lives on both sides. "However, this military adventure of Azerbaijan has not received the due assessment of the international community, creating an atmosphere of impunity, but we are here to prevent a new and more large-scale crime," the MP said.
