About 350 pieces of military equipment took part in a large-scale military exercise recently held in Nagorno-Karabakh. It testifies to high level of combat readiness of the NKR Armed Forces, head of Republican parliamentary group Eduard Sharmazanov told the journalists today.

“I think that military exercise showed that NKR army can offer effective resistance to the opponent, whereas Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev is just provoking his nation voicing warlike statements. Bear is giving a roar of fear,” he said.

Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and Defense Ministry Seyran Ohanyan were following the maneuvers jointly with NKR leadership. The military exercises were launched on November 1 and lasted two weeks.
