Sergey Lavrov: "Russia maintains military and technical cooperation
with most countries, not allowing any destabilizing supplies to any
region"

The document, containing information about the alleged supply of arms
to Armenia by Russia in 2008 is falsified, said Russian FM Sergey
Lavrov during a joint briefing with Azerbaijani FM Elmar Mamedyarov by
results of a bilateral meeting held between them Thursday.
"Russia maintains military and technical cooperation with most
countries not violating any international commitments, its own
legislation and not allowing any destabilizing supplies in any
region", said the Russian FM.
He said on these very principles Moscow is cooperating both with
Azerbaijan and Armenia and no one makes a secret out of it.
"As for the rush around a certain document, which appealed in the
Azerbaijani and Russian mass medias, this document, as proven
repeatedly, is false. It does not meet any criteria of such documents
and contains absolutely groundless information and fixes such grammar
mistakes that cause doubt about where this document was written",
noted Lavrov.
Information about delivery of Russian military hardware to Armenia in
2008 was also discussed today at the meeting of the Azerbaijani and
Russian FMs.
"We were informed that in 2008 Russia did not supply any military
hardware to Armenia. In turn, we noted that we will continue the deep
investigation of this issue", said Mamedyarov.
