Georgian border guards have stopped a convoy on the Georgian-Armenian
border.
Sources in the Georgian Border Guard Department told Itar-Tass on
Thursday, "An armoured vehicle was loaded with five pistols and five
guns. Russia has no documents on this equipment." To this end,
Georgia asked Russian military "to give documents on equipment." The
convoy includes four trucks and four armoured vehicles.
Commander of Russian troops in Transcaucasia Vladimir Kuparadze told
Itar-Tass, "Pistols and guns are armoured vehicles' set that is why
there is no special document on their withdrawal. In order to settle
the incident the command of Russia's base will prepare necessary
documents and deliver them to the checkpoint."
Kuparadze said hardware is withdrawn from Akhalkalaki in compliance
with the Russian-Georgian agreement on the pullout of the bases. The
most part of hardware will be pulled out to Russia and the rest of
them to Armenia.
