World should strongly condemn Armenian aggression
International community must more strongly condemn Armenia`s aggression against Azerbaijan, says Mazhar Bagli, former board member at Turkey`s ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).
Azerbaijan has full right to liberate its occupied territories, he told Trend Apr. 7.

"As Azerbaijan is a brotherly country for Turkey, Ankara sees the Azerbaijani territories` occupation as an aggression against Turkey," added Bagli.

On the night of April 2, 2016, all the frontier positions of Azerbaijan were subjected to heavy fire from the Armenian side, which used large-caliber weapons, mortars and grenade launchers. The armed clashes resulted in deaths and injuries among the Azerbaijani population. Azerbaijan responded with a counter-attack, which led to liberation of several strategic heights and settlements.

Military operations were stopped on the line of contact between Azerbaijani and Armenian armies on Apr. 5 at 12:00 (UTC/GMT + 4 hours) with the consent of the sides, Azerbaijan`s Defense Ministry earlier said. Ignoring the agreement, the Armenian side again started violating the ceasefire.
