Reports of a $500 million arms deal between Iran and Armenia have sparked controversy and raised tensions in the Caucasus, potentially jeopardizing ongoing peace negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
Allegations of Iranian double-dealing are setting the South Caucasus on edge, threatening to disrupt the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace process at a delicate stage. A tangled web of interests among all the players concerned is making it particularly difficult to separate fact from fiction in a supposed arms sale.
“The military exercises conducted by the United States in Armenia, the provision of lethal weapons to Armenia by France, and the initial phase of military aid in amount of 10 million euros provided to Armenia by the European Union under the guise of the European Peace Facility encourage the occupying state – Armenia to carry out such provocations and indicate its preparation for another war against Azerbaijan”, the statement read.
