Yerevan /Mediamax/. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said at the meeting with the President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev in Nur-Sultan that he is glad that "finally the CSTO crisis mechanisms worked” and that it was the priority of Armenia’s presidency in the organization.

“I am glad that after the events that took place in Kazakhstan, normal life has been fully restored. We have always believed and still believe that the CSTO crisis response mechanisms should work properly. Unfortunately, Armenia was in a situation where we thought the mechanism should work, but, sadly, that did not happen. After that, we became the CSTO chairing country and announced that this is one of our priorities. I am very glad that we were able to operate that mechanism when it was necessary,” Pashinyan said.
