Fighters for the Armenian Army: supply, in the context of contexts
Armenian acting Defense Minister Davit Tonoyan on Saturday announced the final phase of the preparation of the contract for the delivery of S-30 CF fighter jets from Russia. This statement is especially interesting in light of the recent statements that Russian weapons have not been delivered to Armenia for a long time.

The Armenian Defense Ministry presented the process of preparation of contracts for the delivery of Russian SU-30 sms. As the Defense Minister stated on December 1, the process is in the final stage. The Minister noted that the sides are trying to speed up the signing of the agreement as soon as possible, and now they discuss the latest details.
At the same time, David Tonoyan added that Armenia has not received a $ 100 million credit from Russia yet. it is a military loan, and the amount should be spent solely on the purchase of armament and military equipment. However, the Defense Minister mentioned that he is closely cooperating with his partner, Sergey Shoygu, and the relevant staff of the department is in constant contact with Russian counterparts.
The Minister's announcement on Russian production flares is particularly interesting in light of recent information that Armenia has not received any weapons from Russian production in May. Undoubtedly, Tonoyan's words can also be considered a response to this information.
So, it should be assumed that rumors about reducing the supply of arms from Russia to Armenia were misinformation. It would be great if any misinformation was denied exactly as it was, practical and essentially.
Now about shipping. Experts have to decide what exactly the army, fighter or night vision means should be. The fighter remains a fighter.
On the other hand, the delivery of the fighter can be considered a serious deal in which different meanings, ideologies and policies are more than business, especially given the fact that the Russian armament is delivered to Armenia at absolutely mid-market prices. And this circumstance, besides the denial of claims about stopping the deliveries, is to answer those who, at least somehow, are concerned about freezing the Armenian-Russian relations.
Besides, the Armenian side has expressed its concern over the delivery of arms to Azerbaijan by Minsk. Since the year 2016, Baku has purchased a large amount of weapons from Belarus. The delivery was carried out in the direction of modern radio-technical intelligence and anti-missile systems, and modernization of anti-missile defense missiles.
Commenting on the statement on selling anti-aircraft defense systems to Azerbaijan, Nikol Pashinyan recently said that it has nothing to do with the Armenian-Belarusian relations. He reminded that Belarus supplied Azerbaijan with a series of "Polonezz" fire-fighting systems while the CSTO Secretary General was the representative of Armenia.
"Our position is very clear. we condemn such transactions, consider these deals against the national interests of the Republic of Armenia. And we think that such deals distort CSTO activities. We must have mutual understanding, each member must have a clear commitment to the other country, what commitments the countries have towards the organization, what commitments the organization has towards its members, "said Pashinyan at that time.
In some ways, the work to speed up the shipments of destructors can be assessed as a response to the Belarus-Azerbaijan military cooperation, which pushes sharp corners and debate topics within the CSTO and allied relations.
And this is the second "humanitarian" aspect of Tonoyan's statement.
