NO PLAN TO CEDE MEGHRI TO AZERBAIJAN, SAYS MINISTER
14:59 * 05.02.14
Armenia has never had and will never have any plan to hand over
Meghri to Azerbaijan, the minister of defense has said, dismissing
Azerbaijani side’s allegations.
Seyran Ohanyan made the statement at a meeting with representatives
of the local NGO Armenian Eagles as he was asked to comment on the
“puzzle” of exchanging the southern border town with other territories.
“I very often hear rumors on the exchange of Meghri, as you do. There
has never been such a plan, and there can never be. Armenia’s armed
forces will lead a battle for every inch of land. We guide ourselves
by the principle of continuing the war violence on the enemy’s
battlefield,” he said, responding to Sargis Hakobyan, the person in
charge for the organization’s headquarters of Meghri.
