Armenia is neither for nor against Zas’ candidacy: Hovhannes Igityan
Vice chairman of the NA’s Foreign Affairs Standing Committee Hovhannes Igityan said he is not aware whether Armenia has given its consent to the candidacy of Belarusian representative Stanislav Zas for the post of the CSTO secretary general.
“I do not have such information. There is a procedure when the board presents his candidate, and the parties elect the candidate by asking questions. When this phase comes, Armenia will present its position and address questions,” he said.
Asked whether Armenia has decided to vote against Zas’ candidacy as some experts claim he is pro-Azerbaijani, Igityan said, “We are neither for nor against. When time will come, everything will be clear. Belarus may change his candidate. We are speaking of a thing that will take place after half a year.”
