Igor Sergeyenko Stressed the Importance of Strengthening Allied Ties Within the CSTO
A regular session of the Council of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly is taking place in Moscow. Parliamentary delegation from the Republic of Belarus, led by Igor Sergeyenko, Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of the Republic of Belarus, is participating in the event.
The Belarusian speaker assessed the current military and political situation and outlined the key priorities for interparliamentary cooperation.
"Every state needs reliable security guarantees to protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity," Igor Sergeyenko emphasized.
He also noted that the Republic of Belarus understands its responsibility for ensuring the collective security of the Organization and is working hard to improve the readiness of its national armed forces to counter military threats.
"At the same time, we recognize that in today’s world it is not enough. Under these circumstances, the willingness of the Organization’s Member States to provide political, military and technical support is particularly important. In the current difficult geopolitical conditions, it is vital for us to strengthen our alliance ties within the CSTO," Igor Sergeyenko stated.
Speaker of the House of Representatives noted that the Republic of Belarus fully supports the priorities announced by the Russian Federation for its CSTO chairmanship this year, highlighting the consolidation of the Organization’s Member States and strengthening of the role of interparliamentary cooperation in ensuring collective security.
"The main goal is well known to us all: it is to solidify the agreements reached by heads of state in a legal form, harmonize national legislation, develop and implement coordinated measures in international forums," Igor Sergeyenko stressed.
The speaker identified information security, countering terrorism, extremism, and drug trafficking, and issues of biosecurity as priorities for the near future.
