BelTA reported, that Zasya reported on his meetings with the heads of the CSTO member states, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Russia, who supported his candidacy for the position of secretary general of the organization.

Lukashenko also officially supported the appointment of Stanislav Zasya, having signed the corresponding draft decision of the CSTO Collective Security Council.

Lukashenko told about the role and importance of the CSTO Secretary General, not mentioning Armenia at all, which opposes Zasya"s candidacy and insists that the Secretary General should be the representative of Yerevan, instead of the dismissed Yuri Khachaturov.

Official Yerevan has not reacted to Lukashenko"s actions. It should be noted that decisions in the CSTO are taken by consensus and the issue cannot be resolved without the consent of Armenia.
