< p _ngcontent-sc90="" class="news-annotation">Azerbaijan has begun shelling Armenia, a member of the CSTO, Russia's counterpart to NATO. However, the first day of the conflict showed that Armenia should not rely on the help of its ally.

Although the rules of the Collective Security Treaty Organization provide for a collective response of all members of the organization in the event of an attack on one of them. Although earlier, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has already received a refusal to help Putin. Economic and political expert Valery Klochok said this on Channel 24.

According to him, Pashinyan raised the stakes even earlier and officially applied for help to the CSTO. This attempt, most likely, did not please Putin. The organization has demonstrated an inability to fulfill its function of protecting members of the organization.

The question is different today. Putin himself is asking for help from Central Asia. He has very serious problems now, he simply has nothing to help Azerbaijan or Armenia,” Klochok emphasized.

The Kremlin dictator understands all this, but does not publicly admit it.

Therefore, now the paths are simple abandoned Armenia, the expert added.

The expert also recalled that the protests in Kazakhstan were also unleashed by internal forces, but under the guise of the CSTO. The uselessness of this structure has already happened more than once.

Pashinyan may soon leave his post

Klochok also believes that sooner or later Pashinyan will be “removed” from his post. This is also evidenced by the fact that several thousand people have gathered in Armenia accusing Nikol Pashinyan of allegedly being ready to make a territorial compromise with Azerbaijan.

Putin's regime may collapse

At the same time, such “requests” of Putin are beneficial for Ukraine. Now it is a very convenient opportunity to resolve internal conflicts for countries, even military ones, in which they exist. We are talking about Georgia, Moldova, Armenia and others.

“In this model, we can come to the conclusion that the current Putin regime can be overthrown. Moreover, the Kremlin is now showing its weakness. It is obvious. And Armenia – additional proof of this,” the expert emphasized.
