Serzh Sargsyan: Escalation attempts by Azerbaijan fraught with destabilization of regional situation
In his speech at the Dushanbe session of the Collective Security Council of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan informed the heads of CSTO member states about the situation in the South Caucasus.
President Sargsyan said that the heads of CSTO states held a meeting to discuss burning issues, and ‘by tradition, it was of a trustful nature”.
“I informed the heads of CSTO states about the situation in the South Caucasus, with special attention paid to the significant threat of an increase in tensions along Armenian-Azerbaijani border and Azerbaijan-Karabakh line of contact. I will not dwell on that issue again, but just say that attempts of the Azerbaijani side to escalate the situation in the absence of appropriate reaction from the international community are fraught with destabilization of the situation in the whole region,” S. Sargsyan said.
