In case of considering the issue of Azerbaijan’s membership to the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), Armenia will use its right to veto, Armenian foreign ministry’s acting spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan said during today’s press briefing, commenting on rumors about Azerbaijan’s possible membership to the CSTO and EAEU, reports Armenpress.

The acting spokesperson clarified that the decisions in the CSTO and EAEU are being made based on consensus. “We have expressed our stance on this matter, and that stance doesn’t give rise to double comments. That stance has been clearly raised by foreign minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan”, she said.
