Sargsyan: "I will welcome Russia's decision to modernize military base in Armenia"

As he told the Armenian Public TV, he will be glad if Russia decides to modernize the base and replenish it with the most modern armament.

"I will be particularly glad is Russia decides to provide the RA armed forces with such armament," he added.

According to him, the issue concerns Armenia and Russia only and "we are not obliged to ask for permission from anyone else."

Moreover, Armenia is not boasting of her military budget and it's not Yerevan that launched the armament race.

Serge Sargsyan reminded of Azerbaijan's purchasing Ukrainian MIG-29 and other armament.

In his words, "they should mind their business while we will mind ours and it's not correct complaining about each other."
