Rome [ENA] The Azerbaijani Army is currently conducting a counter-offensive in response to military an armenian provocation. According to the State Press Agency AZERTAC the operation has been successful. Patriarch Karekin II, the Catholikos of all Armenians, interrupted his visit in Rome where he was to meet Pope Francis and returned to his homeland. Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed territory recognized as part of Azerbaijian,

but governed by the so called Republic of Artsakh. The struggle between Armenia and Azerbaijian over Nagorno-Karabakh escalated after the two countries attained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. The conflict caused thousands of casualties by the end of 1993. “As a result of the successful counter-offensive, the enemy's manpower and military equipment were severely damaged. Several occupied Azerbaijani settlements have been liberated,” said President of the Republic of Azerbaijan and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Ilham Aliyev as he addressed a meeting of the Security Council. At the moment tension grip the whole Caucasus.

Last July Armenia’s military provocations against Azerbaigian with artillery fire in the direction of Tovuz on the Armenian-Azerbaijiani border caused the dead of azeri servicemen and of one civilian. The first fire was opened by Armenia and the first victims were Azerbaijiani servicemen. Congratulating the people of Azerbaijan on the successful counter-offensive of the Azerbaijani army, the head of state declared: “I am confident that our successful counter-offensive will end the occupation! It will end injustice! It will end the occupation that has lasted for nearly 30 years!

Because the people of Azerbaijan want to live on their lands. Azerbaijani citizen lives longing for his homeland. People who were forcibly driven out of their ancestral lands by Armenians, by the Armenian leadership want to return to their native lands even though their homes have already been destroyed by savages. Look at the ruins of Aghdam. Look at the ruins of Fuzuli. Look at the state of our mosques in the occupied territories, the state of our cemeteries.

All this was committed by Armenian executioners, and we are absolutely right. Our struggle is a struggle for justice, and the citizens of Azerbaijan fully support the state today. We always feel this support. Citizen of Azerbaijan are with the Azerbaijani Army, and I turn to our compatriots who have not been able to return to their native lands for almost 30 years and say that we will do our best to return you to your native lands.”
