AZERI ARMED FORCES ATTEMPTED TO SEIZE ARMENIAN POSITIONS
- Azerbaijan made an attempt to make use of the domestic tension in Armenia to provoke a ceasefire violation in Mardakert direction, RA Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian told reporters in Yerevan. “The Azeri units tried to advance through the Armenian territory and seize a post but were rebuffed. Several Armenian servicemen were injured, 2 Azeri soldiers were killed. The skirmish is going on but not so violently. We have already sent a notice to OSCE CiO’s special representative Andrzej Kasprzyk and hope that the situation will settle down soon,” he said. “If someone in Baku hopes to gain psychological dividends, thinking that we are too concentrated on our internal affairs, he is deeply mistaken,” the Armenian Minister emphasized.

I would agree with you if Azeri didn’t live some two causalities after the attack and retreat. At least Azerbaijan confirmed the causalities they have.- Henry

I know. I am just becoming really paranoid with Robert and Serj and tend to belive they will do anything to cling on to power!! In the Armenialiberty article on the subject they accuse of Armenia of doing just that. I guess, I just meant that 'power' especially of post-soviet nature should not be trusted without serious questioning especialy with a media black-out situation.- AG
