PM Pashinyan: We will be equivalent (video)
RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan considers the statement of Defense Minister Davit Tonoyan addressed to the Azerbaijani authorities as right. "It is the job of the Minister of Defense not only to make such a statement, but also to ensure the content of those statements, if necessary," said Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. "In addition to making statements, based on the spirit and preparedness of our armed forces, we will do it," said Defense Minister Davit Tonoyan. In an interview with the international press, the Defense Ministry said that in 2016, In case of repeating the April aggression scenario, the Armenian sidemay not resist the temptation to use all the available resources in its arsenal to counteract the bulwark against the enemy. Did the RA revise its strategy towards Azerbaijan? "If we use the word "review" we must be equivalent to the situation. I think this is the most important approach, that is, no position is hardened, it should be adequate in this regard. That is, we think that yes, the peaceful settlement of the issue is important, and we know that it is possible, but we think that an appropriate atmosphere is necessary for that," Nikol Pashinyan said. Meanwhile, according to him, Azerbaijan with its actions and rhetoric destroys the atmosphere of peace. "If Azerbaijan reconsiders its approach and contribute to the establishment of an atmosphere of peace, we will be equal to that right, if we go to another situation, we will also be equivalent to that situation." The Minister of Defense responded to artsaakh Sefense Minister Levon Mnatsakanyan's statement, according to which large-scale military operations are not ruled out in autumn. "They are always expected, not only by Azerbaijan." Davit Tonoyan attended the 2017-2018 graduation event of military facilities, having 230 graduates, with the Prime Minister and other members of the Government.
