Secretary of the Prosperous Armenia faction of the National Assembly of Armenia Arman Abovyan today posted the following on his Facebook page:

“As we predicted, the Azerbaijanis are very actively moving the Karabakh-Azerbaijan conflict to the territories of third countries.

The “apricot-gate” in Russia, the car of the Embassy of Armenia in Germany that was set on fire in Berlin today, the obvious blackmailing against the Georgian authorities and dozens of provocations against Armenians in different countries — these are the very specific and calculated steps of the Azerbaijanis that are aimed at causing uproar over the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in different countries.

This technology is generally used when those who start the escalation (in the Armenians case — the Azerbaijani leadership) are preparing to seriously take the offensive and are trying to prepare ground for public opinion in different countries through this aggression.

Taking into consideration the logic of the Azerbaijanis’ actions on in domestic and foreign policies and in the military and diplomacy, it is unequivocally safe to express the opinion that the Turks and Azerbaijanis are preparing for serious provocations.

We Armenians must be alert.”
