Armenian Defence officials meet counterparts in Nagorno Karabakh

According to official reports, between 28 and 29 January, a series of meetings and visits with the participation of high-ranking military and state officials took place in de facto Nagorno Karabakh (NK). It is worth nothing that 28 January is marked as a national holiday in both Armenia and NK, marking the formation of the Armenian Armed Forces after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
