Armenia has never talked about leaving the CSTO, but Yerevan is concerned about the organization’s attitude towards the republic, RA NA Speaker Allen Simonyan said on Monday during the fifteenth plenary session of the Council of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Collective Security Treaty Organization and the CSTO PA, RIA Novosti reports.

“Azerbaijan violates the ceasefire regime every day, as a result of which people die. Certain passivity of the CSTO, as well as the official statements of some of our allies, caused a significant change in the public mood in Armenia. We have never made statements about leaving the CSTO, we have said that the CSTO is leaving the region, and this worries us a lot.

“It seems that the territory of Armenia does not have equal strategic importance for the CSTO when much attention is paid to the region of Eastern Europe and Central Asia,” said Simonyan.
