Armenia has not yet announced its intention to withdraw from the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), said the press secretary of the Russian president, RIA Novosti reports.

A reporter asked Dmitry Peskov whether Moscow hopes for the resumption of Armenia's work in the CSTO, and whether Russia is ready to wait for this as long as necessary.

"The CSTO is an independent, mature organization that has proven its effectiveness and relevance. Work continues there. So far, Armenia has not announced its intention to withdraw from this organization," Peskov replied.
