STATEMENT of political parties on national solidarity related to Armenia’s ongoing aggression and last provocations in the direction of Tovuz at the state border.
On July 12 the Armenian military forces committed another military provocation by suddenly and treasonously attacking positions of the Azerbaijan Armed Forces in the direction of Tovuz district at the state border. As a result of urgent and adequate measures of the Azerbaijani army, Armenian’s attack was vigorously prevented and a fitting rebuff delivered to the enemy. The Armenian side suffered heavy losses and was forced to sit back. Armenian military continued fighting on July 13 and 14 and attempted to commit provocations on other sides of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. As a result of the decisive blows of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces, the enemy's fighting capabilities were shaken, a large number of units of military equipment and manpower were destroyed. Unfortunately, our Armed Forces delivering fitting rebuff to the enemy also suffered losses. But they have been avenged. As always, those who caused the death of our glorious servicemen received the most severe punishment. May Allah rest our martyrs in peace! It should be noted that although the ceasefire reached in order to prevent bloody stand-offs, it has become a pernicious habit for the Armenian side to occasionally commit bloody provocations on the line of contact and border areas. This is not the first time the Armenian leadership has tried to evade the serious problems it faces and is unable to solve inside its country by committing disgusting military provocations on the border or on the line of contact. The fact that Pashinyan’s dictatorial regime resorted to military provocations to avoid the anger of the people fed up with the severe epidemiological situation and socioeconomic hardships shows that his policy is not very different from the policy pursued by the previous junta regimes in Armenia. Azerbaijan's ever-increasing power, international reputation, military force, our diplomacy’s success and, as a logical consequence of all this, exposure of the true nature of Armenia’s policy by the international community, as well as the failure of Armenia's dreams of independence for Nagorno-Karabakh, are further reasons for the treacherous and vindictive Armenian political regime to resort to dangerous and bloody methods such as military provocations. It is not coincidence that the latest Armenian provocation occurred in the border zone outside the region of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and shows the insidious and ugly intentions of its perpetrators. It is high time for the world community, international organizations, especially the OSCE Minsk Group, to take the most effective steps to stop Armenian provocations accompanied by casualties and intended to escalate tensions, cause confrontation and heighten the threat of war in the region. The world must finally realize that Armenian provocations and the political power of Armenia behind these provocations have been the biggest threat to peace and stability in the region for many years. We, the political parties of Azerbaijan, strongly support the policy pursued by the Commander-in-Chief, President Ilham Aliyev to safeguard the territorial integrity and security of our country, prevent any Armenian intrigues and provocation, and declare our close unity around it. We call on our people to show solidarity and be ready to resolutely cut off the blood-stained Armenian hands reaching out to our Motherland at any moment. We are proud of our Army, which has a glorious history, and express our solidarity with it. We assure our esteemed President and Commander-in-Chief that each of us is an armed soldier who is ready to fulfill any task of our Motherland at any time for the honor and dignity of our Motherland.
