YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 5, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian foreign ministry is planning to raise the issue of Israel’s UAV supply to Azerbaijan in different bilateral and multilateral platforms, foreign ministry spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan told a news conference today.

“The regional arms race issue has always been on our agenda, and we have and will continue raising about this issue, both during bilateral meetings and in multilateral arenas. This issue will be no exception,” she said.

According to her, international partners must be reminded that arms race in our region is highly dangerous.

The Israeli Defense Ministry has reinstated the export license of Aeronautics Ltd. – a defense company suspected of testing one of its suicide drones against the Armenian military for Azerbaijan in violation of Israeli law, allowing it to once again sell the unmanned ‘suicide’ aircraft. The incident took place when the company officials were in Azerbaijan to finalize a contract for the sale of its Orbiter 1K UAV when they were asked to strike the Armenian military position in 2017.
