CSTO plays key role in ensuring regional stability: Zakharova
The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) plays a key role in ensuring regional stability. Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Russian foreign ministry, stated about this at Thursday’s weekly press briefing, NEWS.am reports.
She recalled that the CSTO will mark its 20th anniversary Friday.
According to Zakharova, on this day in 2002, a decision was made to grant the “CSTO” status to this international regional organization.
"In a relatively short period of time, the organization has passed a worthy path. With joint efforts, an effective structure dealing with security issues was created. Also, the CSTO plays a key role in assisting in regional stability in its area of responsibility," she said.
Zakharova emphasized that participating in the peacekeeping operation in Kazakhstan in January was a clear confirmation of the CSTO's development.
