Exclusive: Armenia to host Russian radar
DEBKAfile April 8, 2012, 1:16 PM (GMT+02:00)
Armenia has acceded to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's
request to host a Russian radar station, DEBKAfile reveals. It will
counter the US radar set up at the Turkish Kurecik air base as part of
the NATO shield against Iranian missile attack. Just as the Turkish
station (notwithstanding Ankara's denials) will trade data on incoming
Iranian missiles with the US station in the Israeli Negev, the Russian
station in Armenia will share input with Tehran.
