President Serzh Sarkisian has raised concerns with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin about large-scale sales of Russian weapons to Azerbaijan, a leading member of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) said on Friday.
"During meetings with our Russian partners this issue has been raised by the president of the republic. We have never made secret of our concerns," said Vahram Baghdasarian, the leader of the HHK's parliamentary faction.
"The president of the republic has spoken about this issue at meetings of the [Armenian and Russian] presidents," he told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am).
Baghdasarian declined to specify when Putin and Sarkisian discussed Moscow's arms deals with Baku, saying only that they are now an "important issue" on the agenda of Russian-Armenian relations.
