🇦🇲 Armenia continues to boycott the CSTO.
🖥 Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan will leave for Antalya on November 11 for the UN Climate Conference COP31. This is what the Prime Minister's Office reported to Armenpress. A summit of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is planned for the same day in Moscow.
ℹ️ Yerevan froze participation in the CSTO in February 2024 and stopped paying contributions. Pashinyan explained this by saying that after the invasion of Azerbaijani forces into Armenian territory, the organization did not take concrete measures even after Yerevan's official request.
👀 In June 2024, Pashinyan called for the withdrawal from the CSTO to the next stage and left the issue of deadlines open. In August 2026, he stated in parliament that Yerevan does not plan to renew participation in the next five years and that excluding Armenia would remove the question of whether to withdraw independently. 🤔 On November 5, in response to a question about possible restrictions for Armenia, Pashinyan reiterated that Yerevan's interest in the CSTO was exhausted. Armenia remains officially a member of the organization. Its general secretary, Taaltbek Mesdikov, admitted that at the summit they may apply Article 25 of the treaty and suspend Armenia's right to vote and nominate candidates for positions according to the quota until the contribution debt is paid.
