Rejection of military assistance to an ally involved in hostilities would discredit CSTOMay 20, 2011 - 17:44 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Deputy Director of Caucasus Institute Sergey Minasyan said that rejection of efficient and immediate military assistance to an ally, which is involved in hostilities with a third country, would only discredit CSTO as a military and political factor on the post-Soviet territory. It can cause irreversible consequences for the further destiny of the organization, Minasyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. “And it is especially topical to consider it in the analysis of all trends in the military and political processes around the Karabakh conflict. This should not be conceived as a negative statement concerning the CSTO activity in South Caucasus. To the contrary, one can firmly state that the CSTO and strengthening of Armenia-Russia military and political cooperation are the most important constraint, which contributes to maintenance of regional stability and security in South Caucasus,” concluded Minasyan.
