    BAKU DOESN'T ACCEPT RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTRY'S EXPLANATION

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry expressed "regret"
    over the fact of "free of charge delivery of Russian armament to the
    amount of $800 million to Armenia."

    "The work carried out gives reason to believe the information to be
    true," says a statement issued by the Azeri MFA.

    The Ministry says that the delivery "is a violation of the UN
    Resolutions on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and of the UN Resolution
    'On the Situation in the Occupied Territories of Azerbaijan.'

    "Full responsibility for the consequences of this action rests on
    Russia," the statement says.

    The Russian Defense Ministry refuted Wednesday Azeri media reports
    about delivery of Russian armament to Armenia.

    The reports are clearly untrue, said Alexander Drobyshevsky, a
    spokesman for the Ministry, told The Echo of Moscow.

    Earlier, the Armenian Defense Ministry also denied the reports that
    Russia supplied Armenia with military hardware to the amount of
    $800 million.

    The reports are absolutely false, the RA Defense Minister's spokesman,
    colonel Seyran Shahsuvaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

    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."
