Armenia has never abandoned the CSTO mission, the draft decision is on the table - Ararat Mirzoyan |aysor.am|

Armenia has never abandoned the CSTO mission, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said during a press conference with the Russian FM Sergey Lavrov.

 "Moreover, the draft decision is on the table.  The work in that direction goes on," he said.

 Mirzoyan mentioned that the CSTO does not recognize a clear sphere of responsibility, and this is problematic.

 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that he is happy that Armenia did not refuse to deploy the CSTO mission.

 "The decision to deploy a CSTO mission in Armenia was the subject of hours-long negotiations on the eve of the CSTO summit in Yerevan.  All foreign ministers agreed on it.  Now it remains a small step for all the heads of states to sign," Lavrov said at a press conference with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan.

 According to him, the possibility of sending a CSTO mission remains, the CSTO is ready for it.

 "Therefore, I am glad that Armenia did not refuse this opportunity, which corresponds to the interests of ensuring security in the region," Lavrov said.
