Russia said that the deployment of a CSTO mission in Armenia would have a significant contribution in stabilizing the situation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said at a press briefing that the possible deployment of the CSTO mission depends on Armenia’s decision.
“The deployment of the organization’s mission in Armenia would have a significant contribution in stabilizing the situation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. The ball is in the Armenian side’s court,” Zakharova said.
She noted that Nagorno Karabakh is not in the CSTO area of responsibility.
