The danger of further escalation of tension in the region is of serious concern, CSTO Secretary General Stanislav Zas said in a statement.
The comments come after military clashes on Armenian-Azerbaijani line of contact on July 28, which saw three Armenian servicemen killed and four wounded.
The Secretary General I expressed deep condolences to the families of the victims and wished the wounded a speedy recovery.
He added that the escalation “could negatively affect the implementation of the agreements in the trilateral format, enshrined in the Statement of the leaders of Azerbaijan, Armenia and Russia dated November 9, 2020.”
