  Defense Ministry: Azeri soldier’s injury can’t be blamed on Armenian armed forces  June 30, 2011 - 16:20 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry report, suggesting an Azerbaijani soldier was wounded in fire opened by Armenian armed forces in Nakhijevan, is false, a spokesman of Armenian Defense Ministe said. As David Karapetyan stated, Armenia’s armed forces are strictly observing the ceasefire, while Azeri side is making a point of escalating the situation through everyday violations. “Only on June 29, the number of ceasefire violation by the Azeri side reached 29,” he noted. “Azeri soldier’s injury, if true, might be self-inflicted or a result of a hassle inside his detachment. If Azeri side has any other arguments to advance, it could address a relevant international structure with a request to initiate an investigation,” Karapetyan said.   Top stories Grigoryan added that the situation around the world and particularly in the region is very difficult. The Armenian Defense Ministry has denied Azerbaijan's accusations of violating the ceasefire. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan took to social media to thank his Lithuanian counterpart for the contribution.
