The commander-in-chief of Russia's ground forces ended on Wednesday his second visit to Armenia in three weeks which the Armenian military said focused on a redeployment of Russian troops stationed in the country.
Colonel-General Aleksandr Postnikov met with Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian the day after Georgia annulled an agreement that has allowed Moscow to use Georgian territory for making shipments to the Russian military base in Armenia.
The Armenian Defense Ministry said in a statement that the main purpose of Postnikov’s visits was to assess the ongoing “optimization of the deployment” of army detachments making up the base. It gave no details of the troop redeployment.
