"In 2022, the CSTO Secretary General told me that there are fears in the CSTO that Armenia will withdraw from the Organization. I replied that these concerns are out of place, but other concerns that exist in Armenia are there, and they relate to the fact that the CSTO will withdraw from Armenia. And my assessment is that, willing or unwilling, the CSTO is leaving Armenia, and this worries us," he said.
