MFA: Nikol Pashinyan leads his people to disaster

"In his address to the Armenian people on October 3, the Armenian Prime Minister voiced his traditional lies and slander. N. Pashinyan, who is trying to justify his aggressive policy and turn the Armenian people into a victim of this policy, is far from taking steps to restore peace in the region," said commentary of the Press Service Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan on the address of the Armenian Prime Minister to the nation

According to Report, the statement continues:

"Ignoring the illegal presence of the Armenian armed forces in Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding regions of Azerbaijan and the demands of the international community, including UN Security Council resolutions, to end the occupation, the current Armenian leadership, on the one hand, continues to cover up its aggressive policy by adding completely unfounded religious elements to the issue, and on the other hand, leads its people to disaster.

"The Armenian leadership repeatedly says about Turkey's involvement in regional operations has only one purpose: to involve third parties in the conflict. We again remind that the Azerbaijani Army is sufficiently prepared to restore its territorial integrity within its international borders and has been carrying out counter-attacks to prevent new Armenian aggression since September 27, following Article 51 of the UN Charter.

"As for the absurd views of the Armenian Prime Minister on the policy of "genocide against Armenians", we underline that unlike Armenia, which committed war crimes against the Azerbaijani population, crimes against humanity, and the Khojaly genocide, the Azerbaijani side responds to these attacks in compliance with international humanitarian law and does not target civilians.

"The Azerbaijani Armed Forces are fighting on their sovereign soil to restore its territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders. Every step taken by the Armenian leadership to cover up its direct responsibility for the region's current situation is doomed to failure."
