For the last month and a half, the Armenian military have been taking provocative steps on the border with Karabakh, including Kelbajar, as well as in the direction of Nakhchivan, demonstrating their unwillingness to put up with the status quo.
Commenting on the attacks of Armenians on Nakhchivan, journalist Rovshan Kabirli said that there are Armenian intrigues behind these provocations. If I am not mistaken, the Armenians fired at our positions in the direction of Nakhchivan twice from heavy weapons. Then the Armenians thought that Russia would intervene in the war in Karabakh under the auspices of the CSTO. However, this did not happen, and the Russian president has always opposed the request of the Armenians, saying that "military operations are being conducted on the territory of Azerbaijan recognized by the UN and the CSTO cannot interfere in this conflict." Now the Armenian revanchist forces want to provoke our people to retaliatory measures, regularly violating the ceasefire in the direction of Nakhchivan. In other words, the Azeri side is running out of patience and is attacking these positions, taking radical steps to silence the firing points in Armenia. This gives the Armenians a reason to demand that the CSTO fulfill its charter obligations. Taking into account that on September 15 the chairmanship of the CSTO is transferred to Armenia, it becomes clear what the Armenians want. You see, although the Armenians opened fire on our positions in the direction of Nakhchivan, they did not try to cross the line of contact. Because Nakhchivan has such a strong guarantor as Turkey. In other words, if the Armenian armed forces invade Nakhchivan, they will also see Turkey. The military-political leadership of Azerbaijan is well aware of the intricacies of the issue and the intrigues of the enemy, therefore it only reacts to fire. "
