"Claim made by the Prime Minister that Azerbaijan allegedly bought weapons from Italy does not reflect the reality," it has been noted in the Commentary by Aykhan Hajizada, Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on the remarks expressed by the Prime Minister of Armenia against Azerbaijan at the press conference on 31 August, APA reports.
"Armenia’s allegations that the military budget of Azerbaijan is 14-15% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) and exceeds multiple times Armenia’s relevant budget is completely contrary to the information disseminated by international organizations about the military budget, and this figure is repeatedly exaggerated. In addition, the increase of Armenia’s military expenditures by 46% compared to last year is another indicator that proves Armenia’s militarization. At the same time, the claim made by the Prime Minister that Azerbaijan allegedly bought weapons from Italy does not reflect the reality," noted in the Commentary.
