“We, as residents of Artsakh, expect Azerbaijan to move to adventurous actions at virtually any moment. Also the economic crisis has its impact of course. [They may] launch military actions to distract the people’s attention from domestic political concerns and the economic situation. The probability is always there, but economic problems add certain elements to it. Our society too, must be aware that military actions may start at any moment, and they must be accordingly prepared for that,” he said.
