On 12 February, as a result of another military provocation of the armed forces of Armenia, a serviceman of the State Border Service of the Republic of Azerbaijan was injured. This provocation of Armenia is a serious blow to the peace process between Azerbaijan and Armenia,” Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs told AZERTAC.
“In light of the stable situation of last 4-5 months, such belligerent acts blatantly contradict with peace messages by Armenia.
Moreover, such a provocation that was undertaken exactly in the territories observed by the European Union Mission in Armenia raises serious concerns about the aims and purposes of this Mission.
Military-political leadership of Armenia bears responsibility for such provocations against Azerbaijan,” the ministry added.
