Deputy Director of Caucasus Institute, political analyst Sergey
Minasyan said that CSTO member states should pursue a more responsible
policy and consider the interests of their allies in military and
technical cooperation with other South Caucasian states.
He recalled that, under provisions of Article 1 of the Collective
Security Treaty, the member states shall not participate in "actions
aimed against another member state."
"The sale of huge number of weapons and military technologies
to Azerbaijan, which threatens Armenia, Á CSTO member state, with
hostilities, by CSTO member states immediately contradicts their own
obligations. Actually, these are "actions aimed against another CSTO
member state," concluded Minasyan.
