PRESIDENT SLAMS SOME CSTO MEMBER STATES OVER PRO-AZERI STANCE
September 24, 2013 - 15:56 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia always adheres to the obligations undertaken
within cooperation in the CSTO framework, true to agreement not to act
to the detriment of the Organization, President Serzh Sargsyan said.
As the Armenian leader noted at a Sochi-hosted CSTO summit,
"coordinated efforts are needed to boost interaction within the
Organization, in order to repair some flaws in the system."
"To cite an example: our documents, specifically the Moscow
Declaration, stress the necessity for the peaceful settlement of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict through the OSCE Minsk Group mediation,
based on the principles of the international law including non-use to
force, people's right to self-determination and territorial integrity.
Similar suggestion was mentioned in the collective guidelines.
However, contrary to the spirit of the decisions taken, some CSTO
member states issue contradicting remarks.
Several documents have been passed in recent years to single out the
territorial integrity principle to the detriment of the two others,
with the move prompted by Azerbaijan.
Naturally, many countries have Azerbaijan-related interests. However,
the latters must not lead to adoption of documents aimed against the
interests of other CSTO members and the image of the Organization as
a whole.
