ArmInfo. There is no need to appeal for help to the CSTO in connection with the accumulation of military equipment by Azerbaijan on the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border in the direction of Nakhijevan. Armenian Deputy Defense Minister Artak Zakaryan stated this on September 1, answering the question whether Armenia plans to apply for CSTO assistance in connection with the accumulation of manpower and armament on the border with Armenia in the direction of Nakhijevan.
Answering the question about the stage at which the implementation of the 200 million arms contract with Russia is located, Zakaryan noted that all agreements have been signed and the supply process continues.
At the same time, he declined to comment on whether Armenia plans to acquire in the future Russia's newest S-350E "Vityaz" anti-aircraft missile systems, developed with the participation of South Korea.
Almaz-Antei Concern presented the export version of the latest air defense complex S-350 Vityaz at the forum Army-2017. They are more compact and cheaper than the S-400, but they have all the capabilities of the S-300 and at the same time can stand up for themselves in close combat without additional cover by "Pantser" or "Toram". Russian experts did not rule out that Armenia could become one of the possible buyers of these systems
