    Nikolay Bordyuzha: CSTO cannot give military response to escalation of
    tension along contact line of Azerbaijani-Armenian troops

    The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict can be resolved only by peaceful means.
    In connection with the escalation of tension in the conflict zone, in
    2014 and before, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO)
    repeatedly issued statements calling the parties for a peaceful
    solution to the conflict, CSTO Secretary General Nikolay Bordyuzha
    said on Friday at a briefing in Rossiya Segodnya information agency.

    According to APA's Moscow correspondent, answering Armenian
    journalist's question on why the CSTO did not given any response to
    what happened on the contact line of Azerbaijani-Armenian troops in
    January 2014, Nikolay Bordyuzha said in 2014 and before, the CSTO and
    Russia's Foreign Ministry made numerous statements regarding the
    escalation of tension in the conflict zone.

    "The CSTO has clearly expressed its position through these statements.
    Do you want us to give a military response? No, it is impossible and
    contrary to the Charter of the Collective Security Treaty
    Organization. The OSCE Minsk Group deals with the resolution of the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The co-chair countries are making efforts
    for a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. As for the
    CSTO, it was chaired by Russia last year. In August 2014, the Russian
    president met with presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia in Sochi where
    the sides underlined the importance of resolving the conflict only by
    peaceful way. This is the position of the CSTO member states as well,"
    he noted.
