Как сообщает АПА, со ссылкой на «РИА Новости», по словам президента Азербайджана Ильхама Алиева его страна ведет переговоры с Россией о новых контрактах по военно-техническому сотрудничеству.

"Мы ведем переговоры о новых контрактах с Россией по военно-техническому сотрудничеству. Никаких ограничений на этом направлении мы не видим".

"Это процесс, который постоянно находится у нас в зоне внимания. Сейчас идут переговоры."

Россия является крупнейшим поставщиком вооружения в Азербайджан. По разным сведениям, объем сделок по купле-продаже оружия за последние годы составил около 5 млрд долларов. Президент Азербайджана Ильхам Алиев заявил, что большая часть сделок уже осуществлены.

"Большинство из них реализовано. Мы получили закупки. Сейчас будем работать над дальнейшими планами по сотрудничеству. Никаких ограничений в Азербайджане и в России нет", - говорит президент Алиев.

В докладе Стокгольмского международного института исследований проблем мира (SIPRI) о тенденциях в продаже вооружений в 2016 году отмечается, что основными поставщиками оружия в Азербайджан являются Россия (69%), Израиль (22%), Беларусь (3,6%).
