/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov met in
Moscow with his Azeri counterpart Safar Abiyev. During the meeting,
Mr. Serdyukov assured Mr. Abiyev that Russia did not transfer arms
to Armenia.
Baku's accusation campaign started after publication of some media
reports about delivery of Russian armament to the amount of $800
million to Armenia. Some two weeks ago, Azeri ANS TV quoted Russian
Defense Ministry's spokesman Alexander Petrunin as saying that
"Russia delivered military hardware to Armenia in the framework of
a transnational agreement."
The Russian Foreign Ministry refuted the information. "Such untrue
anti-Russian publications undermine friendly relations between the
Russian Federation and Azerbaijan," it said in a note sent to the
Azeri MFA.
