Russia and Armenia will set up an integrated air defense network
similar to recently announced Russian-Belarusian air defenses,
Secretary General of the Collective Security Treaty Organization
(CSTO) Nikolay Bordyuzha told a press conference in Moscow.
"The so-called Russian-Belarusian integrated air defense network is
just a part of the cooperation within the CSTO," Bordyuzha said.
"We are expecting Russia and Armenia to set up a similar joint air
defense network," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.
According to Bordyuzha, the CSTO, which comprises Russia, Belarus,
the Caucasus republic of Armenia and four Central Asian states of
Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, will set up three
regional air defense networks - in Eastern Europe (Belarus), in the
Caucasus and in Central Asia.
"After that we will advance to a higher level of cooperation,
coordinating the activity of all regional networks and introducing
common rules of engagement and information exchange," the official
said.
