`The Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), Nikolay Bordyuzha`s statement was groundless. The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry commented on his statement. There is no need to overstate the issue`, Azerbaijani Parliament Speaker Ogtay Asadov said.
According to the Armenian media, CSTO considers the sabotage infiltration attempt made by Azerbaijan near Chinari village of Armenia’s Tavush province as a provocation, CSTO Secretary General Nikolai Bordyuzha issued a statement.
`We assess such actions in the territory of a CSTO member state as a provocation, especially against the backdrop of the quite serious incident in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic 9(Nagorno-Karabakah is an internationally recognized integral part of the Republic of Azerbaijan), in April of this year, with the use of heavy weapons and military equipment`Nikolay Bordyuzha noted, .
“Considering the efforts launched by the leaders of the two conflicting sides as well as of some other states, it seemed that the Karabakh conflict settlement process finally would be more active. However, the information being recently received from the region, and about the violation of the ceasefire agreements, especially the December 29 incident which has caused the death of military servicemen, gives rise to serious concern,” reads the comments by the CSTO Secretary General`, he added.
