ArmInfo.The former CSTO Secretary General Nikolay Bordyuzha, in an interview with the Week programme at the CTV channel in Minsk, Belarus, commented on Armenia's possible withdrawal from the CSTO.
In response to the question whether he considers it possible for Armenia to leave the CSTO, Bordyuzha, in particular, said: "I can't imagine the future of Armenia without the CSTO, I just can't imagine this future, because Armenia is so integrated with Russia, and not only economically, because a huge number of Armenians, several million Armenians, live in Russia. They have ties with their historical homeland. We have very good relations with many political forces in Armenia. Therefore, in my opinion, these are temporary phenomena, but in any case, Armenia will and with Russia, and Belarus, and with the CSTO."
