Warring is easy, reaching peace is difficult - MP

ArmInfo. Azerbaijan seeks to maintain tension on the territory of Armenia, which explains Baku's frequent accusations against Yerevan about ceasefire violations.  Chairman of the RA National Assembly Committee on Defense and  Security Andranik Kocharyan told journalists on March 20.

According to him, such behavior by Azerbaijan does not fit into the  Armenian side's vision of the future of the region. The deputy  emphasized that Yerevan is closely monitoring the development of the  situation, and if necessary, the country's armed forces have an  action plan to counter the enemy's encroachments.

Speaking about the preconditions that Azerbaijan puts forward for  signing a peace treaty with Armenia, Kocharyan noted that such  preconditions will be put forward constantly. Earlier, Baku  officially stated that from now on it does not see any problems with  concluding the treaty, but, as it turned out, this was a temporary  phenomenon, which, according to the deputy, would be a good harbinger  for the formation of an atmosphere of peace and stability in the  region.

Kocharyan emphasized that at one time Azerbaijan, "with its head  down", created a defense system, thanks to which it was able to solve  the tasks set before it. Armenia, after the conclusion of the  ceasefire agreement, having advantages, the victories achieved,  reoriented itself to solving personal issues. Today, Azerbaijan has  its own advantages, which is quite logical given the status of the  winning side. "It is quite possible that the leader of the  Azerbaijani state has accumulated so much negativity towards the  Armenian people that he is currently trying to extract maximum  benefit from the current situation. This is already psychology, but  we are moving forward in accordance with the peace agenda. We must  understand that peace is needed not only by us, but also by  Azerbaijan, Iran, Turkey, everyone needs it. It is easy to fight, it  is difficult to achieve peace, which means life, the absence of  losses. Why not live in peaceful conditions?" the parliamentarian  asked.
