Armenia is getting exclusive Russian arms exports, says senior lawmaker Leonid Kalashnikov

Russia is selling the kinds of weapons to Armenia which it hasn’t sold to any other country before, senior Russian lawmaker Leonid Kalashnikov told reporters when asked about Russia’s arms supply to Azerbaijan, the adversary of CSTO member Armenia.

“Russia is selling arms not only to Azerbaijan, it is also selling arms to its allies and colleagues, including Armenia, selling more, the kind of weapons which it doesn’t ever sell to other countries,” said Kalashnikov, the Chair of the State Duma’s Committee for CIS, Eurasian Integration and Compatriots Affairs.

Kalashnikov is in Armenia for the plenary session of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly.
