Armenian Ministry of Defense refutes enemy disinformation
ArmInfo.The Ministry of Defence of Azerbaijan continues to disseminate disinformation, alleging that
the Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia are actively concentrating, actively moving personnel, armored vehicles, artillery, and other weaponry in various directions along the border. This is stated in a statement by the Armenian Ministry of Defense.
The Armenian Defense Ministry also added:
"The Ministry of Defence of Azerbaijan continues to disseminate
disinformation, alleging that the Armed Forces of the Republic of
Armenia are actively concentrating, actively moving personnel,
armored vehicles, artillery, and other weaponry in various directions
along the border.
Additionally, the Azerbaijani MoD has released edited videos
depicting engineering, fortification, and construction activities of
infrastructure of defensive nature and purpose in general undertaken
in recent months in the rear protection areas of the Armed Forces of
the Republic of Armenia, thus trying to present it as intensive
activities and troop build-ups along the front lines in the last few
days.
The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia asserts that the
implementation of engineering works within the sovereign territory of
Armenia is the exclusive sovereign right of the Republic of Armenia.
These activities are purely defensive and are aimed at safeguarding
the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia.
As previously stated, the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of
Armenia deems the operational situation along the Armenia-Azerbaijan
state border to be stable. Consequently, the MoD does not perceive
the necessity to implement additional measures for border protection.
Therefore, the information regarding troop concentration is not
reflective of the current reality."
Earlier, Azerbaijani disinformation was denied by the EU civilian
mission in Armenia.
