RA Defense Ministry recommends Azeri military officials to refrain from unrealistic statements

September 26, 2009 - 14:09 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - RA Defense Ministry has officially disclaimed Azerbaijani Defense Ministry's press secretary Eldar Sabirogl's statement on the "death of 10 Armenian soldiers during military exercises".



"In response to Azerbaijani side's regular disinformation, Armenian Defense Ministry states that Eldar Sabirogli's statements are absolutely untrue. All that results from morbid imagination," RA Defense Ministry's Press Secretary, colonel Seyeran Shahsuvaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, quoting the Ministry's release.



"We'd recommend Azerbaijan's military leadership to refrain from rendering their desire as true information. They'd better deal with the deplorable situation of their army and eliminate inhuman attitude to Azeri servicemen," the release further says.



Azerbaijani Defense Ministry's press secretary Eldar Sabirogly yesterday announced that " Over the past year, improper organization of military exercises caused the death of 10 Armenian soldiers, and 76 more servicemen have recently refused to participate in further trainings."
