/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan is dissatisfied
with Russia's response on its free of charge armament delivery to the
amount of $800 million to Armenia and urges for extra explanation,
said Elkhan Polukhov, a spokesperson for the Azeri MFA.
Russian Ambassador to Azerbaijan Vasiliy Istratov conveyed Tuesday
to Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov the reply from the
Russian Defense Ministry to Azerbaijan's inquiry about the alleged
armament supply from the Armenia-based 102nd Russian military base
in Gumri to Armenia.
The reply did not satisfy the Azerbaijani side and the Foreign Minister
urged for more detailed explanation, Polukhov said.
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."
