ArmInfo. The representative of the Armenian Defense Ministry Artsrun Hovhannisyan does not think that he provided false information during the war.
In an interview with reporters on February 1, he noted that over 44 days of the war, 400 of his messages were published, of which 170 under the motto "We will win", and about 165 publications representing an extremely difficult situation at the front. There were periods when an extremely difficult situation was developing within one day, indicating specific directions. According to international experts, Hovhannisyan noted, the information was provided in the right proportion.
The representative of the Ministry of Defense noted that he received information about the situation on the front line exclusively from the Defense Army of Karabakh, the Ministry of Defense of Armenia and the operational department of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia.
Artsrun Hovhannisyan believes that since the war is lost, some part of the society is trying on emotions to present the military as traitors, which is wrong. However, the situation related to the surrender of Shushi turned out to be incomprehensible to him. "On November 6, I was in Shushi, but then within two days the situation changed dramatically," Hovhannisyan stated, noting the need to analyze military operations. There is no war without mistakes, there is no war, during which there would be no informational changes, and everything needs to be investigated. We want to find the truth. Three months after the war, I study the course of hostilities episode by episode, and some situations do not fit in my head, '' said the representative of the RA Defense Ministry.
