Vice Speaker of the Armenian Parliament says Baku's statements that Armenia produces nuclear weapons are insanity.
"
Probably, it is a bit tactless to say such things about a president, but I can qualify such statements only as insanity," Sharmazanov told reporters, when commenting on the remarks of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, who said during the UN summit in Istanbul that Armenia produces nuclear weapons. Sharmazanov added that Aliyev has repeatedly made such groundless and ridiculous statements.
To note, Aliyev said in Istanbul: "In April 2016, the ex-prime minister, lawmaker and other officials of Armenia stated that Armenia has nuclear weapons, a so-called dirty bomb.
This statement should be seriously investigated by the relevant international organizations".
Earlier, ex-prime minister of Armenia, MP Hrant Bagratyan told reporters that Armenia has the relevant capacities to create nuclear weapons.
