Russia plans to supply the 102nd base and Armenian Air Defense Troops
with several anti-aircraft missiles S-300.
Russian Military Air Forces and Air Defense Troops second-in-command
will visit Armenia on February 17. The presentation of these complexes
will be held within this visit.
Azerbaijani Defense Ministry condemns Russia’s supplying Armenia with
arms. The Ministry press service officer Ilgar Verdiyev told the APA
that Armenian armament leads to disbalance in the region.
"Azerbaijan and Armenia joined the European Firearms Convention. We
want the regional states to observe the terms of the contract,"
he said.
The 102nd base in Gyumru and Erebuni air-base is used by Russia at
the moment.
