If there are serious economic problems in Armenia due to the coronavirus, Yerevan will not be able to buy weapons for a while until the situation improves.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Armenian military analyst Leonid Nersisyan. According to him, the reduction will also apply to Armenia's military budget:

"Obviously, if the state is unable to fulfill any social obligations, the government will do so by reducing military spending. These reductions will be made through the purchase of weapons".
