There have been no signals given by Armenia that it intends to leave the CIS, and at this point, no one expects that to happen, Secretary General of the Commonwealth Sergey Lebedev told TASS during the 106th meeting of the CIS Economic Council.
"I rule out this possibility completely. There are no signs that Armenia intends to withdraw from the CIS," he said.
The official emphasized that Armenia continues to participate in various CIS meetings. "Today, Armenia’s official representative attended the CIS Economic Council meeting, he spoke on issues in detail with the authority to sign a whole range of documents," Lebedev noted.
Pashinyan stated that he considers Armenia’s withdrawal from the CSTO more likely than the restoration of its membership in the organization.
