Attempt on RF commander’s life is provocation – Bordyuzha
By Tigran Liloyan
The attempt on Russian troops in Transcaucasia commander Alexander
Studenikin’s life in Tbilisi is a provocation, said Major-General
Nikolai Bordyuzha, secretary-general of the Collective Security
Treaty Organisation (CSTO).
Bordyuzha arrived in Yerevan for talks with Armenian leaders on
Thursday evening.
“This is a pure provocation to destabilise the situation in Georgia
and strain relations between Tbilisi and Moscow,” Bordyuzha told
Itar-Tass.
