“Russia supports to military preparedness of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan is
preparing for war. And it’s going to start a war when Armenia in the
result of the migration will be in the weakest condition, and Armenia
will reach to this condition in 2-3 years”, – said the politician
Andrias Ghukassyan to Aravot.am referring to the list of weapons and
military equipment sold to Azerbaijan published in 2012 by Russia.

It’s worth to remind that, according to 2012 the report submitted to
the UN Register of Conventional Armed Forces by Russia, in 2012 Russia
has sold helicopters, artillery and anti-aircraft defense systems to
Azerbaijan, has introduced 8 attack helicopters and 18 large caliber
artillery systems. In addition, it has sold 200 devices of emissive
missiles and a 1000 rocket to Azerbaijan. According to Mr. Ghukassyan
in 2-3 years Azerbaijan will have the necessary armature. “So that it
will try to raise acute military tension. The fact that the supply
of arms to Azerbaijan makes it the most armed country in the South
Caucasus. Russia promotes the war with its steps.” According to the
politician, Russia is not a friendly country for Armenia, and commonly
is not an alien in the strategic area. “Armenia is a country under
the yoke of Russia where the criminal oligarchic system uses a state
of war in Armenia to reproduce its power in Armenia. 2-3 years later
Azerbaijan, at least, will be better prepared for war than Armenia.”
