YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 21, ARMENPRESS: The CSTO is not going to interfere
into the talks over Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, Secretary
General of the organization Nikolay Bordyuzha said today at the
Yerevan-Moscow-Kiev-Astana-Kishinev-Minsk space bridge.
"We do not interfere into the negotiation process. We understand that
Armenia is our partner but there exist relevant mechanisms and there
is no necessity to create anything new," Bordyuzha said.
In his opinion, the OSCE Minsk Group is the one to deal with the
solution of the Karabakh issue.
There are relevant mechanisms, in particular, there is OSCE Minsk
group, trilateral meetings of the presidents of Armenia, Russia and
Azerbaijan take place. "These are the mechanisms to be applied for
the settlement of this very complicated issue," Bordyuzha said.
In response to the question what the CSTO will do in critical
situation, the secretary general said Armenia is full member of the
CSTO and has right to get assistance of its allies. "It is impossible
to forecast crises in the CSTO member states. Everything depends on
a concrete situation," Bordyuzha said.
According to him, in critical situation the organization uses not
only collective operative response forces but its political and
peacekeeping potential as well. "I repeat, as a member of the CSTO,
Armenia will get all the necessary assistance," Bordyuzha stressed.
