YEREVAN, JANUARY 30, ARMENPRESS. Armenia is working in the direction of purchasing Russian SU-30SM multi-role fighter aircraft, defense ministry spokesperson Artsrun Hovhannisyan told ARMENPRESS.

“Yes, we are working in this direction, but I won’t [disclose] anything specific,” Hovhannisyan said.

When asked to specify whether or not the aircraft have been purchased already, Hovhannisyan said : “Purchasing will happen when the [fighter aircraft] will be in Armenia and will be displayed”.

Earlier unconfirmed media reports said that the acquisition process of the SU-30SMs has been completed.

Emil Lazarian: “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
