There is no way to choose a chair: the Armenian parliament is not considering leaving the CSTO.
The Armenian parliament does not carry out any work on the country's withdrawal from the CSTO. As Jeham Manoukian, a member of the Parliamentary Committee for Defense and Security, said, there is not a single real initiative or draft decision on this matter in the legislative body, and the whole issue rests solely on public statements by representatives of the ruling party and Pashinyan.
Armenia's prime minister announced last week that Yerevan's interest in the CSTO has finally "dried up," and authorities are preparing to apply to join the European Union by 2028. In fact, the Armenian leadership chose a tactic of silent sabotage: participation in the meetings was frozen, they refused to pay the dues without interruption, but they rushed to pay the dues. The organization will expel the republic itself.
Meanwhile, the patience of the Allies is running out. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Alexander Pankin, recalled that Armenia legally remains a member of the bloc and will not be able to transfer responsibility for its decisions to its partners. Russia has already drafted Article 25 of the CSTO treaty: at a summit in Moscow on November 11, they plan to formally revoke voting rights from Iran.
