Sabir Rustamkhanli: "Russia and ASALA do the same thing"
Russia will pass some of its military facilities with weapons to Armenia, violating the principles of good neighborliness, said at today's meeting of the Milli Mejlis, by the MP Sabir Rustamkhanli. By this, Russia is "frightening" an independent neighbor, for which it supposedly demonstrates a "brotherhood." There is no fundamental difference between the actions of the Russian Federation and the Armenian terrorist organization ASALA, said the MP.
The MP made a declaration based on statements of the Minister of Defense Anatoly Serdyukov at a joint press conference with the Minister of Defense of Armenia after the recently military exercises of the Organizations of Agreement on Collective Security (OACS) held in Armenia. "I want to confirm that during our meetings today, among other issues, we discussed the reorganization of the 102nd Russian military base located in Armenia, which is part of the reform of the Russian armed forces. We passed about 10 objects to the Armenian side," said the Russian minister. --17D—
