ArmInfo. The CSTO maintains working contacts with Yerevan. This was stated by CSTO Secretary General Imangali Tasmagambetov in an interview with Izvestia.
"We maintain working contacts with Yerevan. I would like to emphasize once again that the Republic of Armenia remains an ally, the organization's obligations towards the country remain. As for the signals of readiness to resume cooperation with the CSTO, the format of relations has not changed and remains the same," Tasmagambetov said when asked whether Armenia has recently signaled its readiness to resume cooperation with the CSTO.
Armenia is boycotting events held within the framework of the CSTO. In February 2024, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that Armenia had practically frozen its participation in the CSTO, since the Organization did not fulfill its obligations to the Republic of Armenia, which could not remain without consequences. On September 18, 2024, at the Second World Armenian Summit, Pashinyan stated that the CSTO poses threats to Armenia's security, its continued existence, sovereignty and statehood.
