BAKU–Dozens of volunteers have appealed to the Azerbaijani Armed
Forces expressing desire to fight against Armenia as part of the
Azeri army after recent escalations of tensions on the contact line
between Azerbaijani and Armenian troops.
Those who appealed include persons who passed military service,
received higher education, as well as under people under 18 and
elderly people.
The appeals indicate willingness to become volunteers in the case
of war. Besides Azeris, citizens of Turkey are also among the people
desiring to volunteer.
Azeri authorities thanked those who appealed to volunteer, but it was
stressed that there is no necessity yet, as Azerbaijan has a strong
army that is able to restore the country’s territorial integrity.
