/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The U.S. Embassy in Armenia is unaware of the source
of the quote which is attributed to an anonymous American diplomat.
1news.az quoted Monday a U.S. diplomat as saying that "the U.S. is
studying the reports on delivery of Russian arms to Armenia to the
amount of $800 million. If the information proves true, we will urge
for a monitoring of Armenian military facilities."
"We have no information to corroborate the allegation that Russia has
made an arms deal with Armenia. Both the Russian and the Armenian
governments have denied the charges. We are confident that Armenia
is aware of its treaty obligations under the Conventional Forces in
Europe treaty," the press office of the U.S. Embassy Yerevan told
PanARMENIAN.Net.
Although the Russian Ministries of Defense and Foreign Affairs have
numerously denied delivery of arms to Armenia, the Azeri media doesn't
stop harping on the issue
