If you think that Baku has only fossil fuel to offer for export, Azerbaijan’s defense ministry has got some news for you. The country plans a foray into the international gun market. There are foreign companies that “want” Azerbaijani pistols and they will get them, Defense Industry Minister Yaver Jomalov pledged on May 19. In particular, the Azerbaijani-made Inam, Zefer and Zefer-K pistols are attracting shoppers' fancy, he claimed. Defense officials hope that military output will soon account for a large part of the country’s non-oil export revenues.
