    CSTO NOT GOING TO PARTICIPATE IN KARABAKH CONFLICT SETTLEMENT

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ "No one has asked us to act as peacekeepers
    in Karabakh, and today's media reports concerning the issue are
    untrue. Besides, Azerbaijan is not a CSTO member state, and we cannot
    deploy forces on its territory without obtaining its consent. Our
    charter clearly states that the organization cannot implement military
    operations on the territory of a non-member state," CSTO says in a
    press release.

    The organization cannot take part in peacekeeping or other operations
    unless requested to do so. "We do not deal with Karabakh issue and
    cannot therefore say anything with regard to such information,"
    release goes on saying.

    Referring to an anonymous Kyrgiz expert, media have today disseminated
    information on CSTO's readiness to take part in peacekeeping mission
    in Karabakh conflict zone.

    Peacekeeping mission was deemed to be the only operation possible on
    the zone, since the deployment of western forces could arouse Iran's
    negative reaction, CSTO informed sources quote expert as saying.
