The Azerbaijani MFA is trying to shuffle off the responsibility for ceasefire violations on others, blaming Armenia for non-compliance with the corresponding agreements.

Specifically referring to the recent escalation of situation on the Line of Contact between the Karabakh-Azerbaijani opposing forces, the Azerbaijani MFA Spokesperson Hikmet Hajiyev stated that the Armenian side is to be blamed for the non-compliance with the agreements on maintaining peace during Nowruz and Easter.

According to Hajiyev, in order to achieve progress in normalization of the conflict and ensure continuous ceasefire, the Armenian Armed Forces must be withdrawn from all “the occupied territories of Azerbaijan”.

This way Azerbaijan, which actively carried out “preparations” aimed at escalating the situation during the past days, summed up the results, accusing Armenia.

As reported earlier, two civilians in Armenia and Karabakh sustained gunshot wounds as a result of the shootings fired by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces.
