"We do not know any details beyond initial reports of the possible plan to create a rapid reaction force under the CSTO," Bryza said.
The CSTO countries agreed to create joint forces to combat terrorism and other threats on Feb. 4. The member-countries noted that NATO has not responded to the call to cooperate.
The CSTO comprises Russia, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia, Belarus and Uzbekistan which decided to join the regional military police bloc only in special cases.
Bryza said that the U.S., Russian, and French Co-Chairs of the Minsk Group are working well with each other and with the parties to the conflict.
"It was reflected in the positive momentum generated by Presidents Aliyev and Sarkisyan, most recently, on Jan. 28 in Zurich," Bryza added.
