Yasar Demirbulag: Turkish-Azeri joint operation in Karabakh impossible

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkish-Azerbaijani joint operation in Nagorno Karabakh is impossible, said retired Lieutenant General Yasar Demirbulag, former chief of Air Forces intelligence office.



He said he heard such purposes at times, when he served as a military adviser in Azerbaijan. "Then they asked for Turkish helicopters to evacuate the peaceful population from Kelbajar. I said it was impossible. War is not a baby game. Azerbaijan should strengthen its anti-aircraft defense in current situation. This issue needs a serious approach if Nagorno Karabakh anti-aircraft system is a part of the CIS Collective Anti-Aircraft System," he said.



"Expectations from OSCE and UN are credulity. I have never seen any examples in history. If Azerbaijan wants to own Karabakh, it should use armed forces. It is necessary to build strong army. The ground attacks are not enough and air forces should be used with maximum effect. The regular army must be strengthened," Demirbulag said, the Azeri Press Agency reports.
