The military equipment purchased from Israel may be used against Iran,
says an article by Iran's news agency IRAS.
The author of the article, Amin Partu, post-graduate student at Tehran
University Political Science Chair, writes, "Azerbaijan bought military
equipment worth about $3.6 billion during the past two years.
Most of the equipment was purchased from Israel. In 2012 alone, Israel
and Azerbaijan signed a deal on purchase of military equipment worth
about $1.9 billion. Besides, Azerbaijan announced its intention to
produce warships in 2013. Surely, Israel will have a big role in
this project."
The Iranian analyst names the types of ammunition, which Azerbaijan
purchased from Israel over the past years and asks, "What threat is
Azerbaijan going to fight using this military equipment?"
"Baku states that this military equipment is directed against Armenia.
But studies by military experts show that it is directed against Iran
or Turkmenistan because Armenia has no outlet to sea. So, Azerbaijan's
anti-ship rockets are only directed against Iran and Turkmenistan,"
the author concludes.
