The Belarusian government has announced that it did not import any

A report sent to the UN Register of Conventional Arms says that
Belarus supplied Sudan with two modernized versions of the BTR-70
armored personnel carrier, sold 10 122-milimeter D-30 howitzer guns
to Armenia and nine Uragan multiple launch rocket systems to Eritrea.
The value of the contracts was not disclosed.

trade deal that year.
In 2005, Belarus supplied Azerbaijan with 19 T-72 tanks, exported
two Mi-8 helicopters to Slovakia and two Mi-24 choppers to Djibouti,
the lowest amount of weapons sold by the country in a decade.
In 2004, Belarus supplied Sudan with 21 BRDM-2 armored reconnaissance
vehicles, seven BTR-80 and 10 BTR-70 armored personnel carriers and a
BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle. In addition, Belarus sold two Su-25
fighter jets to Ivory Coast.

39 BRDM-2s and 32 artillery systems to Sudan, 19 missiles for the
Igla mobile anti-aircraft system to Sweden and 20 armored vehicles
