Armenian armed forces on January 11 at noon again violated the ceasefire by launching provocative attacks on the positions of Azerbaijani army in the direction of Kalbajar region of Azerbaijan-Armenian border. As a result of an attack by the Armenian army, a serviceman of the Azerbaijani army has been martyred.

The military units of the Azerbaijani army immediately caused a serious blow to the enemy forces. As a result of the strong response of our army, the Armenian side has been forced to retreat, suffering severe losses.

It is interesting that on the day before the border clashes, the Armenian side launched a propaganda machine and spread misinformation that the Azerbaijani side opened fire on Armenians in Karabakh.  At the same time, the Deputy Defense Minister of Armenia made a statement, saying there could be tension at any time.

What are main reasons behind Armenia’s provocations on the border with Azerbaijan?

Speaking to EDNews.net, a political analyst and former foreign minister Tofig Zulfugarov believed that there were three important points behind the Armenian provocations.

“The first point is that there are some medium and lower-ranking servicemen in the Armenian army, who deliberately resort to provocations in order to aggravate the situation. We know that there are several centers in Armenia and their support among the  Armenian population is strong enough. These servicemen are also managed by these centers. Their initiative is necessary for them. By the way, the distance between the posts of the Armenian and Azerbaijani armies is not so far”.

The political analyst also believed that the Armenian government was trying to abuse the developments in Kazakhstan for its own interests; The Armenian government intends to abuse the developments taking place in Kazakhstan to achieve something. They are trying to concentrate the forces of a third country on the border with Azerbaijan. They think that this is the only way to ensure the safety of a country. The entry of the CSTO into Kazakhstan gave them hope. The main reason for that they are afraid of the capabilities of the Azerbaijani army.

The third point Tofig Zulfugarov connected with the natural conditions; we know that the situation in Kalbajar is not so good due to the season. “The difficult climate and severe weather conditions in this region usually cause problems in communication between the military units of the Azerbaijani army. In this case, the Armenian military is trying to test the capabilities of the Azerbaijani army. Of course, they do it through provocations. But the Azerbaijani army is vigilant in the face of these provocations. Our army responds adequately to the provocations of the Armenian army in accordance with Israeli practices.  Azerbaijani army inflicts  heavy losses on the Armenian army in retaliation to the killing of our soldier. This tactic is the best way to reduce the enemy's tendency to sabotage”.
