of the republican leadership and the Armenian defense minister. I

Caucasian group. This group created within the framework of the OCST,

their skills in hypothetical defense operations on a bilateral
basis."
The OCST secretary-general noted that two motorized infantry
regiments and logistics units are involved in the exercise. Nikolai
Bordyuzha noted, "This exercise is important for us as an element of
combat training of the joint group of forces." The OCST
