    BAKU ANGRY AT YEREVAN'S CLAIM THAT CSTO COULD INTERVENE IN KARABAKH CONFLICT

    Baku has branded as provocative Yerevan's statement that the Collective
    Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) could support Armenia in case
    the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh worsens.

    "Azerbaijan does not claim an inch of another country's land and is
    not taking any steps toward this. But if Azerbaijan intends to do
    something on its own land, this is its right," Azeri presidential
    spokesman Novruz Mamedov said on ANS television.

    Allegations that the CSTO could intervene if Azerbaijan decides to
    liberate its land from Armenian occupation are "provocative in nature,"
    Mamedov said.

    Armenian Defense Minister Seiran Oganian said on Thursday that Armenia
    counted on support from its allies within the CSTO if the war over
    Nagorno-Karabakh is resumed.

    Oganian said also that Yerevan favored a peaceful resolution of the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
