CSTO Troops Will Be Deployed in Kyrgyzstan, Says Armenian Analyst

Given the chaotic situation in Kyrgyzstan it can be assumed that the Collective Security Treaty Organization troops will enter the country, though it is still unknown what resources CSTO has for that operation, politologist and head of Mitq analytical centre Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan told a press conference today.

"In all probability the accent will be put on Uzbek troops which are interested in it too. And CSTO may become the very concealing method that will prevent Uzbekistan's, even Russia's intervention in Kyrgyzstan," said he, referring to the bloodshed in the Kyrgyz town of Osh.

In his words it is already clear that the country's interim government is unable to control the situation in the country alone and has for that reason asked for help from Russia which shifted the issue into the CSTO field.

According to Melik-Shahnazaryan CSTO will in any way find a way to cope with the situation in Kyrgyzstan.
