Baku, June 1, AssA-Irada
Russia’s move to transfer weaponry from Georgia to Armenia raises
concerns and poses threats, United States Senator, member of the US
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Charles Hagel said.
“Azerbaijan and Armenia are independent countries and stationing any
foreign troops here is unacceptable”, he told a news conference in
Baku on Wednesday.
Hagel said that the US government welcomes the agreement reached by
Russia and Georgia to pull Russian bases out of this country.*
