    IVANOV: STATIONING OF RUSSIAN MILITARY EQUIPMENT IN ARMENIA CANNOT BREAK MILITARY-POLITICAL STABILITY IN THE REGION

    Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
    May 31 2006

    "Russia's small amount of military equipment, mainly military
    property withdrawn from the military base in Georgia is taken to
    Russian military base in Gumru, Armenia.

    This cannot violate military and political stability in the region.

    Russia does not show incompliance with the commitments undertaken under
    the contract on restriction of military forces in Europe," Russia's
    Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov told a news conference following the
    meeting of the CIS Board of Defense Ministers in Baku today. He gave
    this answer to the question whether there is a guarantee that the
    military equipment stationed in Armenia after being withdrawn from
    Georgia won't be used against Azerbaijan (APA).

    "Main part of the military equipment, including heavy equipment is
    taken to Russia through Azerbaijan," said Mr.Ivanov reporting that
    the other military base in Batumi, Georgia, will be removed a little
    bit later and the property of the base will be carried to Russia via
    the sea.
