/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia has never sold arms or ammunition to Armenia
from the Gumri Base No. 102, as Azerbaijani media reported on Jan. 8,
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in Baku.
`I do not think there is a need for an additional investigation
because all the statements made by Russia via diplomatic channels are
based on facts and leave no doubt about the decision made by our
military leadership,’ he said.
`We understand Azerbaijan’s careful approach towards the issue given
the difficult relations between Baku and Yerevan. At the same time, we
are convinced that Russia and Azerbaijan have enough reserves of
mutual confidence to prevent such falsifications from hindering us
from expanding our strategic partnership,’ Minister Lavrov said.
