My stance is the following: a corridor can’t be provided to Azerbaijan, and no country, including our enemy country Azerbaijan, can receive that corridor by force. This is what deputy of the “Civil Contract” faction of the National Assembly of Armenia Armen Khachatryan told reporters in parliament today.

“This will turn into a large-scale war, and Armenia and our people won’t tolerate encroachment on our country. Now they are trying to achieve ceasefire and move forward peacefully. If the hostile encroachments continue, there will be zero tolerance. The enemy can’t achieve any success in Syunik Province, regardless of military advantage,” he said.

Asked if Azerbaijan’s action was conditioned by the desire to receive the corridor, the deputy said he couldn’t say why Azerbaijan took this action, but added that the corridor could be one of the options.

When told that deputy of the “Civil Contract” faction Eduard Aghajanyan stated that there were 15 casualties yesterday and the Ministry of Defense reported only one casualty, Khachatryan said there is no communication with other soldiers and failed to state a figure since he hadn’t verified the number 100%.
