MOSCOW. May 18 (Interfax-AVN) - A convoy, carrying the property of
the 62nd Russian military base, left Georgia's Akhalkalaki and headed
to Armenia's Gyumri on Thursday.
"A convoy of ten trucks, an armored personnel carrier and an
escorting car of Georgian police, has reached the Armenian border
and has completed customs checks," Igor Konashenko, spokesman for
the Russian ground troops commander, told Interfax.
"The journey went smoothly and no problems arose, except that it had
lasted for as long as three hours because of poor roads," he said.
Konashenkov also said that the property of the 62nd base would be
reassigned to replenish Russia's 102nd base located in Gyumri. "The
transfer of this property to any other party is not envisioned,"
he said.
