Belarus denounces links with warlord Victor Bout

“Belarus has nothing in common with the activities of Victor Bout", said a source at the Belarusian foreign ministry, commenting on a related article in the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda v Belorussii. The source at the foreign ministry said: "It is difficult to comment on the articles of this kind, because they are based on the fancy and Hollywood blockbusters. Apparently, the authors have poor knowledge of the international arms trade and effective restrictions in this field”.

The foreign ministry official stated that "Belarus strictly complies with its international obligations, including the assosiated UN Security Council resolutions", reports Interfax.
