Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov today said he could not confirm whether Vladimir Putin will travel to Armenia to attend a CSTO summit in November.

"I don't have any confirmation on this. Our side has not officially spoken about it yet," Ushakov is quoted as telling reporters according to TACC.
