The breaches of the Armenian frontier have doubled in comparison with
the previous year data. Over 413 attempts of borderline violations
have been prevented this year.
During one of the violations a Turkish serviceman tried to enter
Armenia attempting to evade the army discipline. By the way, the
Turkish soldier was armless. The Russian frontier forces immediately
returned the deserter to the Turkish side.
We got this information from Sergey Bondarev, head of Russian Frontier
Forces Department in Armenia. The statistic data of the passing year
reveal that the border-guards have combated against smuggling five
times better and have compensated cargo of about 3.9 million rubbles.
By the way, 14 people rendering direct assistance to the smugglers
have been identified.
The head of the Frontier Forces states that they have managed to
solve a number of issues in view of frontier security. But one of
their major tasks is to control all the flights at the entrance and
exit of "Zvartnots" Airport.
The control is realized with the joint efforts of Armenian and Russian
border-guards.
Sergey Bondarev claims that the Russian Frontier Forces Service has
got 4.5 thousand members in Armenia.
To note, the border-guards' board gets financial assistance from both
the Armenian and Russian sides.
This year, the Russian government has allotted 24 million USD and
the Armenian government - 10 million USD to the board.
