Azerbaijan has resorted to another provocation for the purpose of
exacerbating the situation before the trilateral meeting, Tigran

commented on the murder of an Armenian soldier by an Azeri sniper.
On the threshold of the Armenian-Azerbaijani presidential meeting on
the initiative, and with participation, of Russian President Dmitry
Medvedev, Azerbaijan resorted to a provocation instead of listening to
the international community`s calls for withdrawing snipers from the
line of contact, Balayan said.
“Azerbaijan`s behavior deserves the international community`s
appraisal,” he said.
