Mojawapo wa sababu wanasema juzi nchi yao imepokea mkongoto/kichapo ilhali Urusi haikufanya chochote kuwasaidia licha ya kuwa na base ya kijeshi pale.

Over a hundred people gathered in Armenia’s capital, Yerevan, on Sunday demanding their country leave the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO).
The organisation is a Russian-led military alliance that includes several former Soviet nations, including Armenia.
Azerbaijan, Armenia’s neighbour, is not part of the organisation.
The demonstrators argued the alliance did not do enough to protect their country during recent fighting with Azerbaijan. And they called for Yerevan to move closer to Western powers.
"The US and Europe are our last hope,” said a woman at the protest. “I am here today because I want us to get out of the CSTO.
“The CSTO has become a useless organisation for our state. It does not do anything. It does not help it."
Another protester said: "this thing called the CSTO is only there to defend Russia’s interests.
“This organisation had to help Armenia during the war, and it did not help.”
The calls come after fighting broke out along the Armenia-Azerbaijan border last week.
