The situation at the moment in Artsakh is quite calm, controllable, hostilities are completely stopped, and there are single shootings. There is a very serious silence. The RA Minister of Defense David Tonoyan stated this on the air of the First Channel.

“Russian peacekeepers are deploying very quickly. The deployment is carried out from Armenia through Goris, Lachin to Stepanakert, after which the peacekeeping forces will be deployed along the line of contact on the NKR border,” he said.

He considers it insulting to label the agreement “treacherous”, because the Armed Forces, the whole system of the Ministry of Defense with its military, all the mobilization resources, the government, the Diaspora have done their best for us to be able to succeed. The geopolitical situation was such that we acted in a total blockade in terms of providing weapons and military equipment. What has been done in terms of logistics and combat armament can be called a heroic battle, in addition to military operations. The impossible has been done. The Armed Forces, from conscripts, our heroic youth, to generals, mobilized resources, did their best. We have faced a very large force, the super-armed forces of Azerbaijan. And if they ask me, why weren’t you armed, we were armed, but in terms of quantity, in terms of resources, I think the opportunities of Armenia and Azerbaijan are incomparable. There has been open support from Turkey, both in terms of human resources and armaments and command staff. We do not forget the thousands of mercenaries-terrorists. Our defense army came out with honor. I assure you, the maximum has been done. “We had a big problem with the enemy’s air supremacy, which we managed to neutralize from time to time, but the 5th generation means used by Azerbaijan with the help of Turkey made our response almost impossible,” he said.
