Armenia tired of refuting Azeri Defense Ministry's statementsNovember 19, 2007 - 15:41 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia is tired with refuting the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry's statements which have nothing to do with the reality, RA Defense Minister's Spokesman, col. Seyran Shahsuvaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "There is no Russian military equipment mounted in Nagorno Karabakh. Reports on formation of a new Russian military base are also false. Presence of the 102nd military base is sufficient for ensuring Armenia's security and protecting Russia's interests," he said. Earlier, Trend news agency quoted Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Spokesman Eldar Sabiroglu as saying "a part of the military equipment was transported from Georgia to Nagorno Karabakh." He also said that "under the pretext of perfection of the 102nd military base Russia started building a new base in Armenia."
