    RUSSIAN PARLIAMENTARIANS AGREE THAT RUSSIAN ARMS SUPPLY TO AZERBAIJAN CREATES PROBLEMS IN THE REGION

    Russian parliamentarians agree that delivery of Russian arms to
    Azerbaijan creates problems in the region, Armenian parliamentarian
    from Heritage Party Faction, Leader of Free Democrats Party Khachatur
    Kokobelyan told reporters after today's meeting of the two-day session
    of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly Committee for Security and Defense
    that kicked off in Yerevan on 30 October.

    Kokobelyan said he raised the issue of the Russian arms supply
    to Azerbaijan at the meeting and said that such arms deals do not
    contribute to security and stability in the region.

    "Substantially, the CSTO cannot be considered as a serious structure
    if the Russian-Azerbaijani arms deal for $4 bln is introduced
    just as a 'business project'. Our Russian counterparts agree that
    this is a really serious problem that needs thorough discussion,"
    Kokobelyan said. The parliamentarian also called it strange that the
    final document to be adopted after the session touched upon external
    threats the region has faced, including Syria, Iran, Afghanistan and
    other conflicts, without a single word on the Russian-Georgian war,
    the Abkhazian, South Ossetian and Nagorno Karabakh issues.
