YEREVAN. – The CIS Defense Ministers Council delegation has not received a formal written or verbal confirmation from Azerbaijan on whether it is prepared to accept the delegation from Armenia.

The Armenian defense minister’s press secretary Artsrun Hovhannisyan told the above-said to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

He responded to the query on whether or not the Armenia MOD delegation will participate in the session of the chiefs of the CIS military staffs, which is slated for April 8 in the Azerbaijani capital city Baku.

“And, under this, we first understand the de facto settlement of all the matters on the unimpeded crossing of the state borders of Azerbaijan and transit countries as well as the implementation of the border and customs control procedure,” Hovhannisyan stated.

Thus, the Armenian delegation will not attend the aforementioned session.
