The Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Poland to Armenia Zdzislaw Raczynski in an interview to Armenian News-NEWS.am said that Poland will not supply weapons to any of the parties of the Karabakh conflict.

When answering to the question about the possible cooperation between Armenia and Poland in the sphere of defense, the Ambassador said that Poland will be the last country to do any action that may increase the tension.

“We all know that if the countries that are involved in a conflict purchase additional weapons, it contribute to the tension. Poland has not delivered and will not deliver military equipment for any conflicting country,” said the Ambassador.

According to him in terms of Armenian-Polish military cooperation in general, it is the training, the “leveling” of standards modeled by NATO, cooperation in the area of peacekeeping, because Armenian contingent in Iraq participated in the Polish division.

“It is not necessary to sell tanks to be able to cooperate. There is a certain interest from the Armenian side to some developments in the field of defense, which is MANPADS ‘Thunder’. But we will not deliver them to the region. Armenian party relates to this with full knowledge. There are no differences in opinions,” noted Zdzislaw Raczynski.
