The interdepartmental committee coordinating the implementation of
arrangements envisaged within the framework of the Collective Security
Treaty Organization held a sitting today chaired by Secretary of the
National Security Council of Armenia Arthur Baghdasaryan.
"Rather serious events have taken place within CSTO framework in
the past quarter. First of all it is the non-official summit of the
Heads of State in Kazakhstan, during which it was decided to implement
amendments in the CSTO charter envisaging closer military and political
cooperation between the member states," Arthur Baghdasaryan said.
"Another important thing is that rapid-reaction forces will be created
within the framework of the CSTO, which can be used in case of threat
to any of the member states," the Secretary of the National Security
Council declared.
According to Arthur Baghdasaryan, the third important thing is that
a 1 000-member peacekeeping contingent will be established.
