Press Release

12 April, 2010 00:00
Some Azerbaijani media outlets consistently disseminate fallacious information allegedly in different parts of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border the RA AF units break the armistice and fire upon the Azerbaijani posts. The Azerbaijani media gave birth to the recurrent mendacious information on 12 April, 2010. The misinformation sometimes even gets hilarious: on 8 April, 2010 at 10:06 am in the Azerbaijani 1news.az website an article was published as though the Armenian AF units on 8 April at 10:30-11:00, 10:30-12:30, 21:40-21:55 opened fire at the Azerbaijani posts (http://www.1news.az/politics/20100408100633373.html).
The RA MoD once again announces that the RA Armed Forces strictly follow the armistice rules and take appropriate measures only in cases of infringements and firings from the enemy’s side.
Meanwhile, we urge the Azerbaijani media outlets to avoid disseminating misinformation and not to create artificial tension around the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
