The CSTO is an efficient structure for ensuring security in Eurasia, said Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry. She noted that Russia and its allies are doing their best to strengthen the defence potential of the Collective Security Treaty Organization Member States.
"Intensive work is underway. We coordinate our fight against new challenges. By any measure, the Organization remains an efficient structure that maintains peace and order in Eurasia," Maria Zakharova emphasized.
She also stressed that all members of the Organization have the right to independently determine their foreign policy.
At the invitation of the Kazakh side, chairing the CSTO in 2024, the Republic of Kazakhstan will host a meeting of the Council of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly in early June.
