The CSTO countries denied Armenia the right to vote in the organization and the opportunity to appoint its representatives to responsible positions, writes RBC. According to the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov, the step was taken due to the fact that the republic has not fulfilled its obligations under the association's charter for several years. In 2024, Armenia froze participation in the CSTO and has not paid membership fees since then, Business FM notes.
