Azerbaijani and Armenian Border Guards Have Different Capabilities: Vartanessyan

Border delineation is being carried out by border guards in the area. Tomorrow, if there is an issue related to border delineation, Pashinyan will be the first to blame them, saying, 'What can I do? They were the ones who agreed,' and he will pin the blame on them and hold them accountable. This was stated by military expert Karen Vartanessyan during a broadcast on 24TV.

Commenting on Pashinyan's observation that border guards should stand on both sides of the Tegh village border, Vartanessyan noted that Azerbaijani and Armenian border guards have different capabilities. 'The Azerbaijani border guard force is a separate army, the second army of Azerbaijan; they are numerically superior, have heavy equipment, artillery, and their own aviation—a mini-army. Aliyev is creating a separate army to prevent the concentration of power in one place that might threaten his rule, whereas our border guards lack such skills and numbers. Armenian border guards used to maintain peaceful borders, but now a frontline has formed, and they will be deployed with unprepared personnel gathered under the guise of training exercises without the appropriate resources.'
