YEREVAN. – Armenia desperately needs new Russian weapons, head of Heritage faction Ruben Hakobyan said during parliamentary hearing on a new Russian loan provided for the purchase of weapons.

Unfortunately, in the past there were many agreements signed with Russia that highlighted Armenia's role as a vassal. But this treaty, on closer examination, appears as a contract of equal allies, he said.

Hakobyan emphasized that it is impossible to support Russian arms sales to Azerbaijan, and he had raised the question during the meetings with Russian colleagues.

“Of course, there was justification, apologies, but, unfortunately, it is impossible to change this situation, and we have to admit it. We need the weapons envisaged by this agreement. I have studied appendix 2 to the treaty, and I can say that we desperately need the weapons mentioned there,” Hakobyan resumed.
