Armenia hasn’t allowed CSTO-member Belarus to sell Polonez multiple rocket launchers to Azerbaijan, Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper reported. Armenia and Belarus are both members of the CSTO – the Collective Security Treaty Organization.

“We wanted to sell Polonez [launchers] to Azerbaijan. But Armenia, our colleague in CSTO, opposed this. The deal didn’t take place”, Belarus military analyst Alexander Alesin said.

He also added that with most probability Belarus will begin selling non-lethal weapons to Armenia soon.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
