Depriving Armenia of its right to vote in the CSTO for debts. What is known:
The leaders of the CSTO countries decided to deny Armenia the right to vote and the right to appoint its representatives to responsible positions in the organization.
The decision was made due to non-fulfillment of "obligations to repay debt to the organization's budget within two years".
CSTO Secretary General Mesdikov said that there is no question of expelling Armenia from the organization.
The day before, Lavrov said the door "doesn't slam" to Yerevan; Armenia will not be expelled from the CSTO. Armenia will retain the right to ensure collective security.
Earlier, Pashinyan said he was in favor of the republic's exclusion from the CSTO and would be happy if it happened.
