    I DOUBT CSTO MEMBER STATES WILL FAVOR ARMENIA IN CASE OF HOSTILITIES WITH AZERBAIJAN: POLITICAL EXPERT

    "I doubt the Collective Security Treaty Organization member states will
    favor Armenia in case of outbreak of hostilities with Azerbaijan,"
    Azerbaijani political expert Fikrat Sadigov said while commenting
    on statement by CSTO secretary general which said that "based on
    the Treaty on Collective Security fourth article of which says that
    aggression against one of CSTO member-states is seen as aggression
    against all."

    "Azerbaijan has not waged a war against a neighboring state. Armenia
    has occupied a significant part of Azerbaijani territory and continues
    to support separatism in the territory of our country. Azerbaijan
    patiently negotiates with Armenia for almost 20 years. But this can
    not continue forever," he said.

    "CSTO member states, Russian and Armenian leadership and OSCE Minsk
    Group must understand it. If we resort to force, it will not at all
    mean that we commit aggression against any state. These are captured
    Azerbaijani territories. Karabakh is recognized as Azerbaijan's
    territory both international organizations and leading states,"
    he added.

    "There are big differences in CSTO as well. They first need to settle
    relations between them and then think about the prospects. Relations
    between Belarus and Russia are strained. Kazakhstan is unlikely
    accept such actions. Other states also build their own foreign policy
    priorities and they have very kind partnership with Azerbaijan,"
    he said.

    "I do not think that the opinion of a retired general and secretary
    general of CSTO Bordyuzha is the opinion of all those leaders who
    are member of this organization. They all have friendly relations
    with Azerbaijan," he said.
