India responds to Azerbaijan`s criticism 

ArmInfo. Indian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal responded to Azerbaijan's criticism over the delivery of weapons to Armenia.

"We have good relations with both Armenia and Azerbaijan, but apart 

from that we have a policy to promote defense exports," Jaiswal said 

in a press briefing.

Earlier it was reported that India will supply Armenia with a batch 

of weapons and ammunition worth 20 billion rupees ($244.7 million). 

Deliveries will be carried out on the basis of contracts signed by 

the two countries in early September last year. In accordance with 

them, India will supply Armenia with Pinaka multiple launch rocket 

systems (MLRS) of its own design, which will be sold abroad for the 

first time, as well as anti-tank missiles and a batch of ammunition.

In 2020, India supplied four Swathi artillery reconnaissance systems 

to Armenia.

In addition, India decided to send a military attache to Yerevan.
