We protected Artsakh. This problem...at this moment...is solved...better conditions, better protection, have never existed in Artsakh before. We have also stabilized Armenia's security. Our government's most important factor. Keeping in mind that aggressive part of the world where Armenia is located. We solved the issue of security by following it. Armenia was the first government which decided to deal with others willingly. When Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Ukraine were hurrying to team with Russian forces, they were blaming us, criticizing, and cursing...that we weren't doing the same. That we were not creating an Armenian military. Slowly, events led to this day that Azerbaijan and Georgia don't have a military, but Armenia has a military of 60,000.
Levon Ter-Petrossian
Hostile propaganda against Armenia and the Armenians and state-supported apparent falsifications of history, which have overwhelmed Azerbaijan, coupled with the arms race and military build-up, prove that Baku is not ready for peace... The Armenophobic and aggressive stance of Azerbaijan reinforces our conviction that Nagorno-Karabakh has no future within Azerbaijan. Moreover, Azerbaijan has no legal, political, or moral grounds for aspirations regarding Nagorno-Karabakh. While we are determined to resolve the issue in an exclusively peaceful and negotiated way, should Azerbaijan opt for a military adventure our response will be resolute.

A further escalation of Russian-Georgian relations can lead to a complete isolation of Armenia.
Andranik Margaryan
The information about an Azeri military airplane entering the territory of the Armenian air border does not correspond with reality. The Armenian anti air defense system would not allow any country to enter the border line of the RA without permission. Armenia has one of the most modern technologies when it comes to the air military aspect in the region, and Azeri airplanes became more active in recent days due to general military exercises carried out by the Azeri side. They do not violate our border but are conducting maneuvers. Azerbaijan is aware that Armenia possesses the best anti-aircraft system in the region. No one can violate our border. Our military will perfectly perform the task they are charged with.
Mikael Harutyunyan
Armenia categorically rejects the resumption of military hostilities in Nagorno Karabakh as an option. In case Azerbaijan resorts to military aggression, Armenia will have no other choice but to recognize the Nagorno Karabakh Republic de jure and to employ all its capabilities to ensure the security of the people of Artsakh.
