Artsakh President calls for targeted response to Azeri aggression

On 28 February Artsakh Republic President Bako Sahakyan received personal representative of the OSCE chairman-in-office, Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk.

The meeting addressed a number of issues related to the situation along the contact line between the Nagorno Karabagh and Azerbaijan armed forces.

Special attention was paid to the penetration attempt made by the Azerbaijani subversion unit on 25 February. The President described it as a provocative policy aimed at undermining peace and stability in the region.

Within this context the President highlighted the need for targeted and tough response by the international community, considering it an important component in containing the destructive policy waged by the adversary.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
