Armenian Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan stated on Tuesday that there are no expected changes in Armenia’s relations with the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), despite ongoing discussions regarding the country’s stance on the military alliance.
Simonyan explained that he believed it was the CSTO that needed to reevaluate its role and existence, rather than Armenia altering its position. He emphasized that Armenia's relationship with Russia remained unchanged, despite the growing tensions and concerns that have surfaced in recent months.
Refuting claims of Armenia shifting its direction, Simonyan called such assertions untrue. His remarks come after Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's December 2024 statement, in which he declared that Armenia had effectively suspended its participation in the CSTO, asserting that the organization had reached a "point of no return" in its relationship with Armenia.
Simonyan's comments suggest that, despite Armenia’s withdrawal from certain CSTO activities, the country does not foresee a fundamental shift in its diplomatic ties with the organization or Russia in the near future.
