Baku waiting for suitable moment to resume war with Nagorno-Karabakh –
Armenian president

YEREVAN. Nov 9

Yerevan will continue negotiations aimed at finding a peaceful
solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, but any possible attack by
Azerbaijan on Armenia or self-proclaimed Nagorno-Karabakh will meet a
fierce response, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said in an
interview with the Wall Street Journal.

Sargsyan said that, regrettably, he believes that Azerbaijan is
waiting for a suitable moment to restart this war.

The Armenian president said he is certain that such a mistake will
deliver a blow to the security of the population of Nagorno-Karabakh
and Armenia, but the greatest damage will be caused to the population
of Azerbaijan.

The Armenian government will continue to participate in talks intended
to secure a peaceful solution to the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh,
Sargsyan said.

Armenia will carry out a strike against Azerbaijan only if this
country attacks Nagorno-Karabakh or Armenia, he said.

Yerevan’s response will be fierce because it will not be able to stay
away if Nagorno-Karabakh finds itself in danger, he said.
