Azerbaijani Defense Ministryâ€™s spokesman: Armenian leadership tries to disguise the fact that 12 Armenians were killed and 15 wounded

Taking a stance on Robert Kocharianâ€™s statement at the press conference that only two Armenians were wounded Eldar Sabiroghlu underlined that it was a lie.
â€œOne fact is enough to prove it. When Robert Kocharian held a press conference two days before, Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan made a statement that a number of people were wounded during the shooting and asked the international organizations to be helpful in stopping the shooting. A day later, Armeniaâ€™s military leadership asked Azerbaijani Defense Ministry to stop exchange of fire. Which of them tells the truth? Conclude it yourselves,â€ he said.
The Ministryâ€™s Spokesman said that Armenian leadership tried to disguise the fact that 12 Armenians had been killed and 15 wounded.
â€œThere is also another intention. Azerbaijani army has upset the myth that Armenian army is too strong. This is the main essence of the misinformation spread by Armenian leadership.
