YEREVAN. – The opposition Heritage party has issued a statement
strictly condemning sales of Russian weapons to Azerbaijan.
The party also condemned the decision to transfer Shah Deniz 2 gas
field to Trans-Adriatic Pipeline. According to the statement, both
decisions damage Armenia’s interests and hamper European integration
of the South Caucasus
`The sale of arms by our de jure CSTO ally is strictly reprehensible
act which is inconsistent with the strategic partnership,’ the party
said in a statement. They are confident that such a move is possible
only because of the Armenian authorities’ policy.
`If Russia’s unacceptable behavior continues, Armenia should review
its relations with that country. If any citizen of Armenia and
Nagorno-Karabakh dies in an attack of Smerch used by Azerbaijan, the
responsibility will fall on a country-supplier,’ the statement said.
