Deputy PM Mher Grigoryan gave a speech at the session of the CIS Economic Council


Deputy Prime Minister Mher Grigoryan participated in the regular session of the CIS Economic Council in Moscow. Within the framework of the session, the Deputy Prime Minister made a speech, in which he particularly said,

"Dear Serik Makashevich,
Dear Sergey Nikolayevich,
Dear colleagues,

While in the conditions of observed economic shocks, we are adopting documents within the framework of the CIS on the means of responding to emerging problems, developing methods aimed at mitigating the impact of the current economic situation on the well-being of the citizens of our states, a CIS participating country has launched an unprovoked and absolutely illegal large-scale aggression against the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia.

As you already know, on the night of September 12-13, 2022, the armed forces of Azerbaijan attacked the eastern and southeastern parts of the Republic of Armenia, actually directly encroaching on the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia.

The aggression was carried out with the use of artillery, mortars and drones, by the way, not only the military positions of Armenia were shelled, but also civil infrastructures in the direction of Sotk, Vardenis, Jermuk, Goris, Kapan, Artanish and Ishkhanasar settlements of Gegharkunik, Vayots Dzor and Syunik provinces. There are evidences of Azerbaijanis torturing, mutilating, and illegally killing captured Armenian servicemen. The number of people killed and missing as a result of the aggression reaches 207, including civilians.

192 residential houses, as well as hotels, schools, medical facilities and other civil facilities were partially or completely destroyed.

Still from September 2, 2022, the Azerbaijani side began to spread false news with groundless accusations about alleged violations of the ceasefire by the Armenian side, with the clear aim of ensuring a favorable information base for the realization of their occupational ambitions.

We have regularly received and continue to receive information regarding military air transportations from Turkey to Azerbaijan. From September 5 to 9, the Air Forces of Turkey and Azerbaijan conducted joint exercises, the declared task of which was to destroy the conventional enemy's air and ground targets.

The fabricated accusations of the Azerbaijani side regarding delaying any process, works or negotiations by Armenia are unacceptable. Armenia fulfilled all the provisions of the statements of November 9, 2020, January 11, and November 26, 2021 in a timely and detailed manner and conducted the negotiations in a constructive way.

The aggressive policy pursued by Azerbaijan, taking into account the situation created around Ukraine, is aimed at disrupting the efforts to establish peace in the region.

Azerbaijan's aggression towards the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia by violating the internationally recognized borders of the Republic of Armenia also aims to undermine the work of the Commission on the Delimitation of the State Border and Border Security between Armenia and Azerbaijan and the State Commission on the Delimitation of the State Border between Azerbaijan and Armenia.

The claim that Azerbaijan has the right to occupy the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia only because there is no delimited border is completely ungrounded.

Considering the seriousness of the situation, the Republic of Armenia has decided to apply to the CSTO and the UN Security Council. We expect first of all effective measures from the CSTO.

We demand that Azerbaijan immediately takes all necessary measures and actions aimed at the establishment of a complete ceasefire, the return of their armed forces to their initial positions and the immediate release of Armenian prisoners of war.

Thanks for attention".
