Babayan: If Azerbaijan shoots down civilian planes, war will resume

`If Azerbaijan shoots down civilian planes, it will mean only one
thing – resumption of hostilities,’ David Babayan, Head of the Central
Information Department of the NKR President’s Office, told Aysor.am,
when commenting on Baku’s statements about shooting down civilian
airplanes.

In his words, if Azerbaijan takes such a step, it will not be unrequited.

When asked whether it is likely that Artsakh may change its mind and
not operate the airport, Babayan replied that the airport’s operation
is of importance to the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and it will never
renounce its intention.

David Babayan stressed that Artsakh can ensure the security of its airspace.

We would remind you that the Azerbaijani government passed a law,
which allows the country to open fire on objects (airplanes) flying
over the territory of Artsakh.
