Touching upon Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev’s statements about
the possibility of resumption of military actions if the talks fail,
the Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization,
Nikolay Bordyuzha said: "How can I view the statements about resumption
of war? Of course, negatively. It’s very sad. I hope that the statement
was made to accelerate the conclusion of a treaty with Armenia,
and nothing else."

Nikolay Bordyuzha sees progress in the process of settlement of the
Karabakh issue. He hopes that the six meetings between the Presidents
of Armenia and Azerbaijan during the past year show that the parties
have the political will to reach a mutually acceptable solution.

The SCTO Secretary General positively assesses the Armenian-Turkish
talks does not think that the opening of the border will create
problems at the line of contact between the CSTO and NATO.
