Withdrawal of Azerbaijani troops and deployment of an international observer mission on the @Armenian territories affected by @Azerbaijani occupation and bordering areas is an absolute necessity.
As a result of a new @Azerbaijani attack 3 Armenian soldiers have been killed today within the territory of @Armenia. This is an attack against Armenian independence, sovereignty and democracy. The Azerbaijani invasion must be condemned and stopped. #StandForArmenianDemocracy!
