Pashinyan: Armenia won't host CSTO drills

Armenia considers it inexpedient to host the CSTO drills in 2023, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told a press conference on Tuesday, reported from Sputnik-Armenia.

The Russian Defense Ministry earlier reported that the CSTO peacekeeping drills will be held in Armenia in 2023.

According to PM Pashinyan, there is some misunderstanding in this regard. He said the Armenian Defense Ministry has already informed the CSTO Joint Staff that the Armenian side considers it inexpedient to hold this year's drills in Armenia.

"These drills won't take place," Pashinyan said.
