    OUR SECURITY IS IN OUR HANDS - ARMENIAN EXPERT

    17:27 28.08.13

    The president of the European Integration NGO says the process of
    maintaining Armenia's national security requires the country to rely
    only on its own potentials.

    "Any kind of armament naturally poses a threat to both our security
    and the security in the region in general," Karen Bekaryan told
    Tert.am, commenting on the Azerbaijani authorities' plan for buying
    a $3 billion worth up-do-date weapons from South Korea.

    The expert noted that the country has several times before faced
    criticism over violating OSCE norms, with the current arm purchase
    deal not being the first effort catching the media's attention. "All
    this proves, yet another time, that we have to rely on ourselves in
    terms of maintaining our security to be able to preserve the balance
    and prevent it from causing a conflict of forces in the region,"
    he said, noting that the international community remains absolutely
    silent on the process.

    Addressing the topic, a spokesperson of Armenia's Ministry of Defense,
    Artsrun Hovhannisyan, said Azerbaijan is continuing its active arms
    race in the region. "That gives way to concerns for the entire region
    of course, but it [Azerbaijan] has its own plans, while we have ours.

    And we follow the process of our armament supply," he told our
    correspondent.
