A Defense Minister's Press Secretary Claims Azerbaijan Is Purchasing Offensive Weapons to Capture Yerevan

The press secretary of Armenia's Minister of Defense, Artzruni Hovhannisyan, stated on his Facebook page: "At the end of the 4th generation war and during the 5th generation wars, no conflict party, operating in a defensive manner, has achieved victory. This was asserted by the Prussian military school, and confirmed by brilliant military commanders of the EYP. I won't list them. This is affirmed by the most established concepts of modern warfare, such as Joint Land Operations, Network Centric Warfare, among others. Any combat regulation states that defense, as a type of operation, is important; however, the decisive factor is the offense. During the Artsakh war in 1993, when we liberated around 6000 square kilometers of territory, we suffered fewer casualties than in previous and subsequent defensive phases. 'You can avoid defeat through defense, but you can only achieve victory through offense.' - Sun Tzu

P.S. The leadership of Azerbaijan declares fifty times a year that they are purchasing offensive weapons to capture Yerevan, etc...
