France to Sell Air Defense Weaponry to Armenia

French Minister of the Armed Forces Sébastien Lecornu and Armenian Defense Minister Suren Papikyan will meet in Paris on October 23 to officially confirm Armenia's acquisition of French-made weapons.

Lecornu announced the news in an October 21 interview with the Le Parisien newspaper.

“It is necessary to allow Armenia to protect its civilian population and ensure the protection of its borders. Tomorrow, we will formalize Armenia’s acquisition of a certain number of weapons from French manufacturers, by signing a contract that will allow the country, in particular, to ensure the protection of its skies,” Lecornu told the newspaper.

During an October 11 discussion of the 2024 defense budget in the French Senate,  Lecornu said that this week they will finalize operational and concrete measures of cooperation with the Ministry of Defense of Armenia.

Even North Korea could be a better partner than this traitor Russia and his president. Who once again made a secret deal with Ankara and Baku over Armenian land and lives , and afterwards start blaming and voicing accusations against Armenia, even insulating our nation! After so many hidden deals between Russia and Turks over Armenian home land , Armenia should never and never again trust Russia and its corrupt army . Russia is only looking for ways to keep somehow its foot in Armenia and in the region - For this Russia will use every tool ,and empty promises! BUT Armenia should not have wrong or too much exceptions form EU /USA or Iran either in respect to security guaranties ! We all Armenians should know that this was Russia itself that brought NOTO-Turkey to Karabakh and made and making different kinds of deals with NATO-Turkey while accusing Armenia "being apparently pro western and so on...." How come that Russia is cooperation so closely with NATO-Turkey? NATO-Turkey and Azerbaijan have become strategic partner for RUSSIA - So we have the enemy in our home land and exception to "protect" Armenia - At lest we should be aware of real dangerous coming from a traitor and fake security alliance with Russia that "jumps with Erdogan/Turkey into bad "!
