On September 26, the first meeting between Kubanychbek Bokontaev, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Kyrgyzstan to Russia, and Sergei Pospelov, Executive Secretary of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly, took place in Moscow.
As you may recall, the decree appointing Kubanychbek Bokontaev as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Kyrgyzstan to Russia was signed by the Sadyr Japarov, President of the Kyrgyz Republic, on August 5, 2024.
During the meeting, the parties discussed the Coordination Meeting of Chairpersons of Defence Committees of the CSTO Parliaments held recently in Bishkek, participation of the Organization's parliamentarians in CSTO exercises in Kyrgyzstan in September; they also outlined prospects for further cooperation on the eve of the forthcoming chairmanship of the Kyrgyz Republic in the CSTO in 2025.
Traditionally, several events of the Collective Security Treaty Organization are held in the chairing state during the year, including a meeting of the Council of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly, the work of specialized commissions and other working meetings.
