In case of a war with Azerbaijan, Russia will help Armenia, Head of
the Armenian Armed Forced General Staff Yuri Khachaturov has told
reporters.
Asked why doesn't Russia assist Armenia as its CSTO ally in such
incidents like the latest deadly shootouts on the border with
Nakhijevan, in the area of Yeraskh, Khachaturov said. "It was just
an episode, not war. In case of war, Russia will help us."
He recalled that Moscow supports Armenia by training Armenian officers
at the best military academies in Russia and supplying weapons and
military hardware. However, Yuri Khachaturov did not comment on the
remarks that Moscow supplies the same arms also to Azerbaijan.
