    CSTO chief, Armenian defense minister discuss military cooperation,
    Armenian-Azeri conflict

    MOSCOW. Jan 19

    General Secretary of the Collective Security Treaty Organization
    Nikolai Bordyuzha and Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian
    discussed military cooperation and the situation on the Armenian-Azeri
    border by telephone on Monday, CSTO spokesman Vladimir Zainetdinov
    told Interfax-AVN on Monday.

    "The talks dealt with progress made in implementing the resolutions
    passed by the organization's Collective Security Council in December
    pertaining to military cooperation and the situation in the Caucasus
    collective-security region, given the continuing tensions on the
    frontline along the Armenian-Azeri border provoked by recurrent
    gunfire attacks from the neighboring side," Zainetdinov said.

    The parties said that efforts should be made to ease tensions, saying
    that a peaceful settlement of the conflict has no alternative.

    In connection with the tragic killing of an Armenian family in Gyumri,
    the CSTO general secretary conveyed condolences to the victims'
    relatives and to the fraternal Armenian people. "He said he was
    convinced that the joint investigation would be thorough and
    objective, and that all those guilty would receive their just
    punishment," Zainetdinov said.
