The minister once again brought to the attention of
the session participants the statements of the President of the
Republic of Azerbaijan, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed
Forces Ilham Aliyev, made during the meeting of the head of state
on May 28 with the people returning to the city of Lachin, about
elements that carry out illegal activities in the Karabakh economic
region, calling themselves "parliament", "president", "minister",
"deputy", as well as on the amnesty conditions that may be applied
to them.
The necessity to quickly fulfill the tasks set to the
Azerbaijan Army, arising from the speeches of the Supreme
Commander-in-Chief regarding the provision of security in the
Karabakh economic zone, was noted.
Emphasizing the high attention and care of the head of
state to the Azerbaijan Army, the Defense Minister emphasized that
the addition of 1.1 billion manat ($6.4 million) to strengthen the
country's defense capability and increase national security
measures, including 1 billion manat ($5.8 million) for spending on
special defense projects and events, will allow the purchase of new
modern weapons and military equipment.
Then the operational situation on the
Azerbaijani-Armenian conditional border and in the Karabakh
economic region were analyzed.
The tension that may arise as a result of recent
transportation of military supplies by illegal Armenian armed
detachments in the territory of Azerbaijan, where the Russian
peacekeeping forces are temporarily stationed, and the attempt to
install long-term fortification facilities in front of the
Azerbaijan Army positions, as well as firing its positions in
Aghdam, Tartar and other directions, has been warned.
The minister gave specific tasks to continue
monitoring of the activities of illegal Armenian armed detachments,
as well as to be ready to immediately and resolutely suppress any
possible provocation.
The minister also stressed the importance of teaching
servicemen the rules of effective application of modern combat
methods, weapons and military equipment newly adopted to the
armament of the Azerbaijan Army, in combat training events held in
order to increase the knowledge and skills of military personnel,
and further increase the combat capability of units.
Colonel General Hasanov instructed to strictly follow
safety rules during service-combat activities, to regularly deliver
these rules to personnel, and to constantly control their
compliance.
In the end, specific tasks were set before the
authorized persons regarding the organization of troops service,
further improvement of service and social and living conditions, as
well as the continuation of necessary measures for engineering and
medical provision.
