Deputy Defense Minister of Russia called incorrect information on  possible termination of Russian arms supplies to Armenia as part of a  military loan

Deputy Defense Minister of Russia called incorrect information on  possible termination of Russian arms supplies to Armenia as part of a  military loan

ArmInfo. Massed rumors in the  media that Russia can stop the supply of arms to Armenia within the  framework of a 100-million loan agreement are incorrect. This was in  conversation with journalists in Armenian Dilijan, said Deputy  Minister of Defense of Russia, Colonel- General Alexander Fomin.

"These are incorrect information, I do not confirm them," he said,  referring to media reports that the withdrawal of the CSTO  Secretary-General Yuri Khachaturov and his criminal prosecution in  Armenia led to problems in the Armenian-Russian relations, which may  result in termination of Russian supplies arms of the Republic of  Armenia within the framework of a one-hundred-million-strong military  loan.

Moreover, he stressed, the Russian side is discussing current issues  of military and military-technical cooperation with the leadership of  the Defense Ministry of Armenia. "We have a solid legal and  regulatory framework - over 60 treaties and agreements, not every  country can boast such a legacy," Fomin added.

He recalled that Russia and Armenia have a United Air Defense System  and a United Group of Forces.  These structures are improved and  strengthened in every possible way. The General is convinced that the  achieved level of interaction between the countries ensures the  solution of any current tasks and an adequate response to the  changing situation. Commenting on the situation around the recall of  the CSTO Secretary General Yuri Khachaturov, who is being accused as  part of the case on March 1, 2008, Alexander Fomin noted: "Armenia is  running justice."
