/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The member states of the Collective Security Treaty
Organization (CSTO) are concerned over the NATO military infrastructure
being built around Belarus and Russia. At that the Alliance has not
responded to the CSTO proposal on partnership so far, CSTO Secretary
General Nikolay Bordyuzha stated. "A year and a half ago we proposed
partnership to the Alliance but have not received any response so
far. We understand that this is not a technical fault and we are
concerned over the fact," Bordyuzha said. "The NATO's unwillingness
to cooperate is conditioned by political reasons," he added.
In Bordyuzha's opinion, new members will be accessed in the NATO
for the fulfillment of certain military tasks. "We are concerned
that states will be accessed to the NATO without accomplishing the
necessary military procedures," Nikolay Bordyuzha said adding that
the accession of Ukraine and Romania is nothing but "a political
decision for the fulfillment of military tasks," reported Interfax.
The CSTO member states are Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan,
Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The military-political union of these six
states was fixed by the Treaty on Collective Security signed May 15,
1992. The Council of the Collective Security is the supreme body of
the CSTO.
