Although Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh had announced the military exercise, Azerbaijan, as always, showed its face, violating the international law, Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan told reporters on the sidelines of the “Unity 2014” joint operational and tactical military exercise of the Armed Forces of Armenia and Artsakh, while commenting on the downing of a Nagorno-Karabakh helicopter by Azerbaijani forces, according to Yerkir.am.

“This incident is painful for us, it was an insolent act, and our response will be adequate and a little incommensurate,” said the Minister.

Asked by Yerkir.am what steps are being taken to approach the helicopter, Mr Ohanyan said that they got in touch with the Azerbaijani military leadership with the mediation of international organizations and added that other measures are also being taken in that direction.
