Movses-Hakobyan-nkar

Movses Hakobyan, Chief of the RA AF GS, thinks that the number one factor threatening Armenia's independence is the external enemy. He does not agree with Edward Nalbandyan, Minister of Foreign Affairs, that there are territories in Artsakh whose extradition to Azerbaijan will not threaten the security of Armenians. "I do not know such territories. Today, such a defense system is created in Artsakh that in case of its distortion Artsakh's security will be in serious danger. Any distortion in the defense system can cause serious threats to Artsakh's security." Does Movses Hakobyan's position mean, that the Army will resist territorial extradition to Azerbaijan. No, of course. "The Army will do whatever the political power will decide." Russia's arms sale to Azerbaijan is one of the factors that threatens Armenia's security. Movses Hakobyan agrees with the evaluation. "Every weapon gained by Azerbaijan is a threat to the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh." Details in the video
