Russia’s permanent representative at the OSCE Alexei Borodavkin said while addressing the organization’s Permanent Council in Vienna on June 3, that Azerbaijan should be not concerned over Russia’s decision to redeploy part of its military hardware from bases in Georgia to Armenia.
According to the Russian Foreign Ministry’s information note issued on June 3, Ambassador Borodavkin informed the OSCE Permanent Council about the joint declaration signed by Russian and Georgian Foreign Ministers on May 30, in which Russia pledges to pull out its military bases from Georgia in the course of 2008.
“Russian armaments which will be redeployed from Georgia to Armenia will not exceed the norms set by the Adapted Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty.”
“This armament and military hardware will be under permanent and full control of Russia,” the Russian Foreign Ministry quotes Borodavkin as saying. http://www.civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=10052
