ArmInfo. The statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan that the  Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia have concentrated a large  number of weapons, military equipment, and personnel near the  Armenian-Azerbaijani border does not correspond to reality. The  statement of the RA Ministry of Defense reads, the press service of  the RA MoD reports.

"In addition, regarding another false allegation mentioned in the  statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan, the  Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia once again declares  that the Republic of Armenia does not have an army in  Nagorno-Karabakh," the RA Defense Ministry added.

Today the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan  issued another statement torn from reality, which contained a  "bouquet" of accusations against Armenia.  Thus, the enemy foreign  office considers the 9-month blockade as "efforts aimed at achieving  a lasting peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia". And they assured  that the alleged revanchism, fueled in the Armenian society,  undermines these efforts.

In addition, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of  Azerbaijan considers Yerevan's appeal to the UN Security Council amid  the blockade of Artsakh, groundless, and assured that Armenia  allegedly "once again deliberately and purposefully impedes efforts  aimed at finding a balanced, international legal and acceptable  solution through international partners." And for Baku, only the  pro-Azerbaijani option is acceptable,at the cost of the genocide of  the population of Artsakh.

Then, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan  accused Yerevan of disrupting the agreements on the Agdam  (Akna)-Stepanakert road, aimed at absorbing Artsakh and disrupting  the meeting with the NKR authorities.  Then, in Baku, with cynicism,  they said that if Yerevan had not disrupted these agreements, then  humanitarian supplies to the population of Nagorno-Karabakh would  have begun in early August.

It is phenomenal that the state, which denies the fact of closing the  only internationally recognized road providing communication between  Artsakh and the outside world two sentences above, recognizes the  existence of a humanitarian crisis in NKR and does not hesitate to  blame Yerevan for this.

"In recent days, there has been a large-scale accumulation of  weapons, other military equipment and personnel of the Armenian Armed  Forces with the aim of another military adventure along the  undelimited border with Azerbaijan," the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry  continued, although without explaining why Armenia, which proclaimed  the concept of an "epoch of peace," accumulated frontline weapons.

By tradition, Baku accused the Armenian Armed Forces of transferring  troops to Artsakh, although they did not specify how it was done, if  for 9 months the only road connecting NKR with the outside world was  closed by them. And in conclusion, Baku threatens Armenia with a new  war and confirms its intention to seize Artsakh by force.
