Operative communication between Armenia and Azerbaijan established on Armed Forces level: ex DM
The operative communication between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been established on the level of Armed Forces, former defense minister Vigen Sargsyan told the reporters today.
“We hail the existence of the operative communication but it is not the communication between the prime minister and the president as defense minister Davit Tonoyan has stated,” Sargsyan said.
“We had such communication. We had periodical special communication as well to discuss urgent issues. It is not technically complicated. We had twice established such communication during my term as defense minister. It is a normal situation during conflicts,” he said, adding that such communication may be useful for avoiding unplanned and accidental escalations.
