First Russia, and now Serbia.
President Boris Tadic said "the issue has been successfully resolved" in his meeting with Russia's ambassador to Belgrade, Aleksander Alexeyev, who has given "a positive response" to Serbia's appeal that the Zastava arms company is allowed to sell guns and rifles worth US$2.55 million (€1.94 million) to Armenia.It's about time Armenia upgraded its weapons. I'd rather they never see much use, but one can never rule out certain possibilities.
Earlier this month Zastava criticised the Serbian government for withholding permission for its previously arranged sale to Armenia, allegedly because Russia — Serbia's traditional ally — objected to the Serbian supplier venturing into a market usually supplied by Moscow.

hi, me again!
this is pure nonsense, the foreign minister draskovic (party: spo) is using the americans, while the president (party: ds) is useing the russians as excuse for a mistake that turned out crucial in pre-election-times!
or can you imagine anybody in moscow with sleepless nights becaus of peanuts like eur 2 mio?
the russian ambassador was to polite to say in public that russia never had a problem with that deal.

Hi,
Your insights are always welcomed! I do agree with you that Draskovic is making a bigger deal of this than Moscow. But it's all pointless, because they are ready to be exported! :)
