Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is confident that further escalation is unacceptable in Karabakh conflict zone.
“Use of heavy weapons against peaceful settlements is absolutely unacceptable,” Nikolai Bordyuzha said at the closing ceremony of Indestructible Brotherhood 2015 military exercise in Armenia. “It is troubling that the numerous statements by the Collective Security Council and the Council of the CSTO Foreign Ministers had no impact on Armenia’s neighbors.”
“The international community must do everything to prevent further deterioration,” Bordyuzha said.
In response to a question on CSTO’s involvement in the conflict, the Secretary General said a CSTO member state, unable to deal with the situation, should apply to the Organization first.
“I believe Armenian armed forces are capable of ensuring security, stability and territorial integrity of the country,” Bordyuzha stressed.
