Eldar Sabiroglu Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry has commented on Seyran
Ohanyan’s statement.

‘This is not their first loud statement about their army’, spokesman
for the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Eldar Sabiroglu said commenting
on the odd statement by Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan who
said ‘the Armenian armed forces must reach the level of the strongest
armies of the world’.

‘They are already used to such statements and they take these steps to
conceal the bad state of their army. Currently, the Armenia army is
overwhelmed by corruption and desertion, there is a great resentment
among commanders and soldiers. The things have reached the level when
these issues were discussed at the highest level. It is not necessary
to pay attention to their statements, as the Armenian army is in a
disastrous state’, Sabiroglu said.
