/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia is not going to buy water cannons from
Turkey.

"The Armenian police did not request the State Purchases Agency for
procurement of water cannons from a Turkish firm," Vasak Tarposhyan,
head of the Agency, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

Earlier, Nurol Machinery and Industry Inc., a Turkish firm in
the defense business, announced that it is preparing to sell
vehicle-mounted water cannons to Armenia.

"Armenia contacted us. Talks have been going on for some time now,"
Nurol Machinery’s deputy marketing manager Tanju Torun said during a
demonstration for the firm’s new six-wheeled Ejder (Dragon) armored
personnel carrier.
