Azerbaijani Defense Ministry continues to spread disinformation

The statement released by the Ministry of Defence of Azerbaijan, claiming that from 10:15 p.m. on March 17 to 12:20 a.m. on March 18, units of the Armenian Armed Forces opened fire on Azerbaijani positions in the eastern and southeastern sectors of the border, does not correspond to reality.

It is worth recalling that the Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia has proposed the establishment of a joint Armenia-Azerbaijan mechanism for investigating ceasefire violations and related reports. However, Azerbaijan has yet to respond to this initiative.

The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia reaffirms that, in accordance with the position of the Office of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia, it stands ready to investigate the facts supporting the statement issued by the Ministry of Defence of Azerbaijan, should they be provided to the Republic of Armenia.
