Armenia will negotiate with France on the purchase of air defense systems, Armen Khachatryan, a member of the "Civil Agreement" party, APA reports.
If the contracts are signed, Armenia will pay for the equipment itself.
"Air defense is one of the weakest aspects of Armenia. We need a new quality," Khachatryan said.
Note that French defense enterprises produce several air defense systems.
The most modern of them is the "Crotale NG" short-range air defense system, worth about 48 million dollars.
