“We have been telling the CSTO member states for a long time not to sell weapons to Azerbaijan, a country not friendly to Armenia. In the end, those weapons were directed against Armenia and the people of Armenia. That is a problem,” Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said today, on 16 May, at the Jubilee Summit of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO).

According to him, the reactions of the CSTO member states during the 44-day war, after the war, did not make the Armenian people happy.

“But I want to emphasize the efforts of Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war. I would like to emphasize that we are consistent with the trilateral agreement of 9 November, the agreements of 26 November and 11 December, 2021.

Armenia, as a CSTO presiding country, is ready for long-term cooperation, and we believe that the CSTO has a significant role to play in the settlement and stabilization of the conflict in the region. We are positive about supporting the CSTO and its programs,” Pashinyan said.
