MOSCOW — Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has stated that Armenia has not submitted any formal request to withdraw from either the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) or the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU).
“No such request has been received regarding the CSTO, nor has any application been submitted to withdraw from the Eurasian Economic Union,” Lavrov told reporters following a joint meeting of the CSTO Council of Foreign Ministers, Council of Defense Ministers, and Committee of Security Council Secretaries.
Lavrov also emphasized that Armenia continues to retain the fundamental rights guaranteed under the Collective Security Treaty, including the right to collective security.
His remarks come amid ongoing discussions about Armenia’s future participation in Russian-led regional organizations.
