Ukraine Rejects Reports Of Selling Missile Systems To Armenia
August 14, 2012
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has described as a provocation media
reports in Azerbaijan alleging that Ukraine sold multiple rocket
launchers and mobile missile systems to Armenia in 2011.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleksandr Dykusarov said at a press
briefing on August 14 that Ukraine had been strictly observing the
international obligations assumed before the UN and the Organization
for Security and Cooperation in Europe, as well as national
legislation.
Armenia’s Defense Ministry also denied the reports on August 14.
Armenia and Azerbaijan have been in conflict for around three decades
over Azerbaijan’s Armenian-controlled enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh,
with a fragile cease-fire in place since 1994.
The self-proclaimed Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh has not been
recognized by any other country.
