RA Defense Minister: International Community against Karabakh Conflict Settlement by Force
The OSCE Minsk Group is the only structure dealing with the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. That is why it's impossible to predict the impact the report on Armenia to be heard at the OSCE PA winter session will have on it, Armenian Defense Minister Serge Sargsyan told a news conference in the Yerevan press center of IA Regnum. He once again reminded that the international community stands against resolution of the Karabakh conflict by use of force. "If Ilham Aliyev protests armament of the Armenian army and thinks that oil money will help him, it's his own business. Our task is to strengthen the army, furnish it with modern weapons and be ready for any turn of events," Serge Sargsyan resumed.
