Armenia – Feb 21 2022


The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry spread disinformation yet again, accusing the Artsakh military of opening fire at Azerbaijani combat positions deployed near the villages of Shosh and Taghavard on 20 and 21 February.

The Artsakh Defense Ministry denied the Azerbaijani allegations as “entirely false” in a statement on Monday, adding the Azeri troops themselves violated the ceasefire in the area.

“The ceasefire was actually violated by the Azerbaijani army units that fired indiscriminately on the Defense Army positions. There are no casualties or material damages as a result of the ceasefire violation,” the ministry said.

The Russian peacekeeping command has been alerted about the ceasefire violation by Azerbaijan.

“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
