"There were several targets of Armenia’s attack on Tovuz in July. Because during the period prior to this, they declared that if the battles occur around Nagorno Garabagh, they are ready to strike our strategic infrastructure projects – Sangachal Oil and Gas Terminal and pipeline. Therefore, one of the purposes of the attack in Tovuz region was that they made a test on how far they can penetrate. Because their main purpose there was to cross state border, to occupy the Azerbaijani lands and to come near to that TANAP pipeline or to take it under control", President Ilham Aliyev voiced these statements in his interview with TRT Haber TV channel, APA reports.
The head of our state also talking about other reasons of the attack said: “Currently, the very deep crisis, both political and economic, is lived through in Armenia. As a result of this crisis, the political ties in Armenia have been broken because currently, Pashinyan’s government casts into prison the main opposition leaders. For instance, he deprived of deputy immunity the chairman of the main oppositional party, and threw him in jail. The criminal case has been opened against two former presidents. There is no freedom of speech, freedom of gathering. He destroyed the Constitutional Court by force, brought his own people. Therefore there is already a very serious concern inside Armenia. Pashinyan organizes this attack in order to divert the public opinion. He wants to involve Russia, to destroy our strategic infrastructure, to stabilize internal situation and to occupy a pert of the Azerbaijani lands and thereafter to strengthen his position in the discussions”.
