Russia Arms Armenia, Azerbaijan Objects


Here's one of those fearful S-300s!

It's no surprise that Azerbaijan is up in arms (no pun intended) about Russia's supply of several potent anti-aircraft missiles to Armenia.

Russia plans to supply the 102nd base and Armenia’s Air Defense Troops with several anti-aircraft missiles S-300.

Azerbaijani Defense Ministry condemns Russia’s supplying Armenia with arms. The ministry press service officer Ilgar Verdiyev told the APA that Armenia stations the armaments in occupied Azerbaijani territories.

“Azerbaijan and Armenia joined the European Firearms Convention. We want the regional states to observe the terms of the contract,” he said.
