The Armenian side has informed the CSTO Secretariat about Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s request to the Prime Minister of Armenia, Chairman of the CSTO Collective Security Council Nikol Pashinyan to end the CSTO peacekeeping mission in Kazakhstan from January 13, CSTO informs.

According to the CSTO Secretariat, the order of withdrawal of peacekeeping forces will be decided on January 13 during the session of the Council of CSTO Defense Ministers that will be held in a video conference format.

Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said earlier today that the withdrawal of forces would begin on January 13.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
