Information about the disbandment of the Karabakh Defense Army has become clear

The unrecognized republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh Republic) will retain its own armed forces. This was stated by the Secretary of the NKR Security Council) Vitaly Balasanyan.

Answering journalists' questions, Balasanyan stated that Artsakh will remain an independent Armenian entity and will keep its own armed forces, which will be transferred to a contract basis. Currently, the republic's authorities are engaged in the creation of a professional army.

There is no question that Artsakh will not have armed forces. Artsakh had, is and will have armed forces, more mobile and combat-ready

- he said, commenting on rumors about the disbandment of the NKR Defense Army.

Earlier in Armenia, rumors began to spread that the NKR Defense Army would be completely disbanded due to the entry of Russian peacekeepers into the region.

At the same time, the NKR authorities denied rumors about the start of a new war with Azerbaijan. According to the president of the unrecognized republic, Arayik Harutyunyan, someone is spreading rumors about the upcoming war, escalating the situation in the republic.

This is a figment of a sick imagination, these rumors are not substantiated and are aimed at creating various panic moods among the population.

- he added.

Harutyunyan stressed that Karabakh will remain independent and implement an economic development program with the support of Russian peacekeepers and the new Artsakh Defense Army.

War will not be counter-terrorist operation

[WHAT IS]

This is not "swinging fists", this is what is left to defend

and not to return what was lost.

[Avior]

Is it possible to say that what is being transferred to the Armenian side?
It would be more correct - the control of the Armenian side remains, and even more correct - the peacekeepers.

[Nikolaevich I]

Hmmm ...! Looked at the "picture"! What the Armenians have left ... They can only do what Zbruev advised in the film "Everything will be fine" ...

[Petr Vladimirovich]

All artists, well, just a miracle ... !!!

[Pereira]

They no longer need an army. After 5 years, Azerbaijanis will shower them with empty bottles.
For this reason, Azerbaijan does not need a large army either.
There is no enemy. Unless the Turks will force them to fight in Syria or Iran.

Has Armenia renounced its territorial claims to Azerbaijan? No. Therefore, Azerbaijan needs an army that will destroy the army of Armenia as quickly as possible and with the least losses.
The factor of Iran has not been canceled, but Azerbaijan will not pull 1 on 1, but it is also stupidity to score on the army. A country with a more powerful army always has a more stable position than with a weak army.

will not force, well, confuse the relations between Armenia and Russia. And there is no need for that for Turkey.

I don't think so.
You are not looking at a geographic map of the region and at the drawings, but not a physical map with mountain ranges indicated on it ...
All settlements not captured by Azerbaijan The NKR is located in a mountainous area, transport communications are under the control of the "MS" of the Russian Federation ....
In 5 years, the Dashnaks will have time to prepare the NKR in engineering for a future war, there will be no bulky formations in the NKR Armed Forces, there will be small units no larger than battalion tactical groups of mixed composition ... similar Basij of Iran ...
The Azerbaijani Armed Forces, this is not the Armed Forces of Ukraine, they will not be enough for a long and protracted war ...

[infantryman2020]

LOL! Contract ?! Where will the money be taken?
(a rhetorical question)

[knn54]

Alas, patriotism "drowned out" the voice of reason.
Azerbaijan needs a war in order to divert public attention.
And where the Turkish peacekeepers appear, wait for the war.

[rocket757]

Let's see how they do it ... if nothing is changed at all, it certainly won't be good.

[Bakinec]

There will be no army. The attitude towards these upstarts like Balasanyan, Harutunyan is such that let them play a little, pretend to be cool, independent. BUT, until Azerbaijan masters, it will populate the liberated territories around Karabakh. Then the turn of the territories will come, which are under the control of the peacekeepers. According to the agreement, more than 100 thousand Azerbaijanis will return to these territories against 50 thousand Armenians. Naturally, these people (Azerbaijanis) will demand that either the Armenians disarm or that Azerbaijani troops be brought in to protect the Azerbaijani population. Naturally, then, in order not to aggravate the situation, the peacekeepers will force these terrorists to disarm. Until then, let them play.

did you announce the plan of the Turkish General Staff?

[Bakinec]

No, I voiced one of the points of the lie dated November 10, which states that the refugees will be returned to their places of residence, from where they were expelled. The agreement is signed by Russian President Putin. That is, I indirectly voiced Putin's plan.
What does the Turkish General Staff have to do with it?

Thanks for clarifying

Please.

Karabakh will remain independent and implement an economic development program with the support of Russian peacekeepers and the new Artsakh Defense Army.

And at the same time, rumors are spreading in Armenia about the elimination of the army due to the presence of Russian peacekeepers. Someone in Armenia really does not like our presence in Karabakh, despite the fact that they were saved from complete defeat and loss of all previously conquered territories.

I think if it were not for the indirect assistance of the Russian Federation in the war against Azerbaijan in the first war for the NKR, the Russian Federation and the 102nd WB in Armenia itself would not have ...
The 102nd WB is the former 127th MSD (reduced composition) of the 7th OA Zak. VO, 7th OA and under the Union was weakened and the Russian Federation managed to subordinate the impossible to its jurisdiction one of the three MSD of this association ...
The Russian Federation turned the 127th MSD into an MSBr. but of constant composition ....
I think in the future the Russian Federation will change the structure of its troops in the RA not in favor of the ground component ...

[iouris]

It was recently defeated, and now it has also been disbanded. Well, Pashinyan ...

What does Pashinyan have to do with it again, is he the Prime Minister of Nagorno-Karabakh?

[Migel Agaev]

dear vitaly balasanyan..you will soon need to get a passport of an azerbaijani citizen .... and please note where you were for 44 days of the war..hiding where ..... I wonder who will pay for the contractors, insurance..feeding to drink .. ... you would rather think about the economy .... to fight with whom you are going ???? with Azerbaijan or Somalia ...

[Yujanin]

Balasanyan stated that Artsakh will remain an independent Armenian subject and will keep its own armed forces, which will be transferred to a contract basis.

I hesitate to ask, and at whose expense the banquet?

[Blackmokona]

Most likely, the army will dry up ten times, that's all. It will not be easy for conscripts of posts.

By no means.

One of the central topics of Balasanyan's interview was the reform of the NKR army.
“The Republic of Artsakh will have its own Armed Forces represented by the Defense Army. No one has the right to prohibit us from doing this, because this is our safety, ”Balasanyan emphasized in an interview.
The Defense Army will be subordinate to the Security Council.
«Everyone has a duty to serve. This people will receive a high salary ", - said Balasanyan.
According to him, border troops will also be created in the NKR, as well as a contract reserve will be formed, reserve and militia... The latter will be subordinate to the civil defense headquarters.

Again, the Armenians are talking their tongues, as if they are the winners in a war.

[Azimuth]

Answering journalists' questions, Balasanyan stated that Artsakh will remain an independent Armenian entity and will keep its own armed forces, which will be transferred to a contract basis. Currently, the republic's authorities are engaged in the creation of a professional army.

Apparently there is no other way out after the protests of the conscripts' parents in Armenia against their sending to Karabakh.

I think a lot will change as soon as Nord Stream 2 is completed, then we will see what our authorities really think about Karabakh, Armenia, Donbas, Ukraine.

One thing is clear that the NKR leadership exists and acts with our permission. But now it is still not clear what this is, a forced measure against anarchy in the territory under our control, or this is a preparation for the future.
If our plans do not include the replacement of Aliyev in Baku, now in vain we allow the Karabakh leaders to open their mouths. With such statements on their part, we saw off the legs of Aliyev's throne, while most likely we do not have our own candidate to replace him, or we do not have strong positions to support and put him in power. It is enough for us to have a sad spectacle in Armenia, where we are losing with much more opportunities, if Azerbaijan also lose, then there will be a complete alles. Moreover, Aliyev suits us to some extent, although he, like Batska, plays in a multi-vector approach, but because of the preservation of his power, he is doomed to an alliance with us. Plus, it is also important that Aliyev is cowardly and while he is in power, Azerbaijan never uses its right to demand the withdrawal of our troops from Karabakh.

I repeat, there should be blanks, if they are, but now it is not profitable and dangerous for us. So it is worth shutting up the fountain to the Karabakh comrades, let them work in silence for now.
