The former Russian co-chair of the Russian-Armenian intergovernmental
committee can sleep quietly to promote the Russian-Armenian strategic
partnership. Klebanov was the person who participated in the
implementation of the deal Property for Debt. There is information
that the Russian authorities are likely to audit the companies that
were transferred to Russia in return for the debt. This idea occurred
a year and a half ago, however it was definitely frozen. The Lragir has
learned that the idea of auditing Property for Debt is again generated
among the Russian authorities. In this context there is other important
information that some Russian government officials, including officials
of the defense ministry, who were informally engaged in bringing into
being the deal of Property for Debt, were dismissed.
