Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has said that Yerevan has not
recognized Kosovo because "we are trying not to make statements that
could contradict to the key stance of our allies."

"We are trying not to make statements that could contradict to
the key stance of our allies. In this case, the CSTO [Collective
Security Treaty Organization] allies. We expect the same thing
from our allies. On the other hand, Kosovo is another example of
self-determination," Sargsyan said in an interview published in the
[Russian] newspaper Kommersant today.

As for the possibility of Kosovo’s recognition by Armenia in the
future, Sargsyan said that "there is a time for everything".
