Shoigu: “Armenia does not participate in CSTO activities for fictitious reasons”

According to a Russian official, “Recently, the Armenian side does not even bother itself and does not change its reasoning. The same reason is constantly mentioned: the CSTO’s weak response to the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Karabakh, or rather, its absence,” Shoigu noted.

“CSTO is a defense organization. It reacts when it is appealed to because of an attack on this or that state,” said the Secretary of the Security Council of Russia.
