- said A.Fomin, adding that any questions that will arise from the Myanmar side in the implementation of the contract for the supply of these machines, Russia is ready to quickly resolve on a contractual and friendly basis

These are, in particular, Mi-24, Mi-35 and Mi-17 helicopters, as well as MiG-29 fighter jets, training Yak-130 aircraft, Pechora-2 anti-aircraft missile systems, other equipment
- noted the Deputy Minister of Defense.

        Duc ... they are the same "neighbors" with China as Vietnam or India. In Myanmar, in the areas bordering China (populated by ethnic Chinese), there is a full-scale war with the Chinese-backed troops of the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance. In March 2015, it came to shelling and bombing of Chinese territory.
