“On November 16, the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly turns 15. The Assembly has become an important institution for increasing the effectiveness of the CSTO activities, strengthening its international authority and influence and enabling close coordination between Member States’ parliamentarians on the most important issues of ensuring national and regional security. New challenges and threats can be resolved by developing the parliamentary dimension of the CSTO, approximating our countries’ legislation and forming a common security space. Today the Assembly’s main goal is to solve these tasks through legislation,” noted Vyacheslav Volodin, Chairman of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly and the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation.
