Situation in Nagorno Karabakh subject for serious analysis within CSTO, Kremlin says
The situation along the contact line in Nagorno-Karabakh is a subject for serious analysis within the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), Russian president’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday, according to TASS news agency report
"This current situation, the ongoing hostilities along the contact line are a subject for profound analysis within the Organization . In all other respects, I would refrain from comments only because it is a very sensitive matter requiring utter accuracy and caution," he said, and quoted by the source.
"First of all, it is necessary to analyze the situation," he stressed. Peskov did not say though whether the Russian side thinks that the issue requires some response. "I would rather refrain from any comments on that matter now," he repeated.
To note, Article 4 of Treaty states that in case of aggression against any of the member states, all the other member state at the request of this member state shall provide the latter with the necessary help, including military, as well as support by the means at their disposal in accordance with the right to collective defense pursuant to article 51 of the UN Charter.
