YEREVAN, OCTOBER 24, ARMENPRESS: CSTO must give an adequate response to
the existing threats, Chairman of RA NA Standing Committee on Foreign
Relations Armen Rustamyan stated today at the National Assembly during
discussions over the protocol "on making changes in the Collective
Security Treaty".
"It is natural, that our main concern is the Nagorno Karabakh issue,
and even if the CSTO does not add the security guarantees in this
issue, it will not reduce either," Armen Rustamyan stressed.
According to him, now it is under specification in which cases the
CSTO can use its rapid response forces outside its borders. "Those
actions will be taken when international security is threatened,
and if Azerbaijan uses aggression against Nagorno Karabakh, then
obviously suchlike threats will originate," Mr. Rustamyan stressed.
