Armenia asks military assistance from CSTO to restore its territorial integrity

YEREVAN, September 14, /ARKA/. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said today that Armenia has applied to the Russia-led Collective Security Treaty Oorganization (CSTO) invoking Article 4 of its Statute, which implies restoration of Armenia's territorial integrity and ensuring the withdrawal of Azerbaijani Armed Forces from the country.

"When I say that Azerbaijan has carried out aggression against Armenia, I mean that it has established control over some territory. That is the reason why we applied to the CSTO. We applied to the CSTO invoking the 4th Article, which says that aggression against one member country is aggression against other member countries. We asked the CSTO for assistance, including military assistance, to restore Armenia's territorial integrity and ensure the withdrawal of Azerbaijani forces from Armenian territory," Pashinyan said during a government Q&S in parliament on Wednesday.

Pashinyan said the goal is the withdrawal of the aggressor from Armenian territory. "That is our goal, including in the context of our initiative in the CSTO," he added. -0-
