Fuad Huseynaliyev: West's arming of Armenia may target both Azerbaijan and Russian soldiers

The West's arming of Armenia could pose a threat not only to Azerbaijan but also to the Russian military personnel, according to Fuad Huseynaliyev, the director of the Report Information Agency.

According to Report, in an appearance on the Gundam program aired on the ARB24 channel, Huseynaliyev shed light on the potential motives behind the West's military support for Armenia.

"The militarization of Armenia could pave the way for a series of events in the region," Huseynaliyev stated. "The West, through this means, could engage in espionage against Iran, monitor the processes there, and exert control over the Russian military base. A situation might even arise where the issue of removing the Russian military base comes to the fore. Perhaps, Western weapons will also be directed against Russian soldiers. We cannot completely ignore this possibility."

Huseynaliyev emphasized that the roots of the West's arming of Armenia can be traced back to the Armenia-European Union-US meeting held in Brussels in April and the document signed there. However, he noted that this militarization cannot, in any case, change the balance between the Azerbaijani and Armenian military industries in the near future.

"The Caliber.az website has also presented photographic evidence of the militarization to the public. All these processes are the result of the April meeting and the secret document signed there, which has not yet been fully disclosed to the public. According to the latest information, mainly French weapons are being sent to Armenia, but the list also includes German and US weapons, which are being channeled through France," he added.

Huseynaliyev also commented on the impact of Russian President Vladimir Putin's state visit to Azerbaijan and his subsequent briefing of Nikol Pashinyan on Azerbaijan-Armenia relations. He noted that conveying Azerbaijan's messages and key positions to Pashinyan is a commendable process, the results of which will be seen in the near future.
