CSTO chief signals possible Armenia membership decision at Moscow summit

CSTO Secretary General Masadykov stated that Armenia's membership status could be decided at the alliance's summit in Moscow next month, acknowledging that Yerevan's withdrawal 'could happen' if the issue is raised. This follows Armenia's ongoing freeze of participation in the Russia-led bloc amid deteriorating relations with Moscow over Nagorno-Karabakh. The outcome remains uncertain, but a formal exit would mark a significant shift in post-Soviet security alignments.
