CSTO countries unite armies to protect the Caucasus and Central Asia

21
The unstable situation in the Caucasus and Central Asia forces the CSTO countries to unite troops. The CSTO Secretary General Nikolai Bordyuzha stated this during the Coordination Meeting of the Chairmen of the CSTO Parliamentary Committees (Commissions) on Defense and Security of the CSTO Parliaments held in the National Assembly of Armenia, NovostiNK.ru reports.

As Bordyuzha noted, "taking into account the development of the situation in the world, today we must take even more effective and active measures in order to increase military cooperation."

"That's why the relevant proposals have been worked out. They concern, first of all, the improvement of the CSTO military organization. We propose the creation of CSTO troops, combining all existing components. These are peacekeeping forces, CRRF, bilateral groups, and rapid deployment forces in the Central Asian region, in these troops additionally enable and create collective aviation component, that is, aviation, which can: engage in the transportation of personnel and formations, if necessary, localize certain conflicts, provide combat cover for operations, "said ODBC General Secretary Nikolai Bordyuzha.

Recall that in Armenia, at the Bagramyan test site, from September 15 to 19, joint exercises of the CSTO “2012” Collective Operational Response Forces are held. In the final stage of the exercise, Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov will take part.

The military component of the CORF consists of formations and units of constant combat readiness. The total strength of the CSTO CRRF is estimated at about 20 thousand people, half of whom are Russian soldiers.

CSTO participants after the suspension of Uzbekistan’s membership remain Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan.

The Collective Security Treaty Organization was created on the basis of the Collective Security Treaty, signed on 15 on May 1992 by the CIS member countries.

    The Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Anatoly Serdyukov will take part in the final stage of the exercises. laughing On a white horse? He will not fit into the tank unequivocally. And as for the joint protection, this is so in the vision of the neighbors the Russians will protect, and they type support.

    I am against the CSTO. Why, yes, because, according to the agreement, the participating countries should support each other in the event of an attack on one of them by a third party. In the 2008 year, did the countries voiced above the country greatly help during the conflict with Georgia?

      Engaging other countries in a conflict would be crazy.

    But how would they help us?) The point here is not that we really need military assistance from the Kyrgyz or Tajiks. This means our military presence in the participating countries.

    CSTO participants after the suspension of Uzbekistan’s membership remain Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan.

    Against whom are they going to defend Armenia? From Turkey or Azerbaijan? If from Turkey, then Turkey does not have land claims against Armenia, but vice versa. But even in this case, not Kazakhstan, not Belarus, let alone Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, will not fight against Turkey. I can explain why. It is also against Azerbaijan. So who are they scared of?

    But there is one BUT

    If Armenia decides to increase its land at the expense of you, for which it will receive the most backbards, then this is another matter.

    Now ask yourself a question, someone wants to rob someone and these countries will fight. That is, in a foreign war, for the priorities of others and in addition to immediately receive enemies from 3 countries. You need it?

    I thank God from the name of the CSTO, as in a joke, it takes laughter. Nobody will support anyone there! And did not support !!!

    There is Russia and that's it !!!!

    Karavan "I am against the CSTO. Why, but because, according to the agreement, the participating countries must support each other in the event of an attack on one of them by a third party. Did the above countries help Russia in 2008 during the conflict with Georgia?" " In fact, it will be interesting to see if there is an Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict (God forbid, of course), whether the CSTO forces will be involved or again to diplomats to puff off ... Or to check this structure for suitability, we must wait, for example, from the side China against one of the participants in the organization or the penetration into their territory not of a single gang of terrorists, but of a whole terrorist army.

      In the CSTO, I see only Russia. There reality is Russia. Russia does not need the CSTO, Russia needs to return the USSR, but how, the question is interesting.

      Then no CSTO is needed.

        Russia, and not just Turkey, has its own geopolitical interests in this region. As for the CSTO member states, this is their reasonable choice, dictated by the development of real threats, the edge of which is directed precisely to the Russian underbelly through the Caucasus and Central Asia, but the post-Soviet states will become the first victims. And Azerbaijan will not be able to be on a horse, no matter how much he flirts with the United States and the West. Why Azerbaijanis and Uzbek leaders cannot understand that they will be smiling and helping only as long as they can be used against Russia. Indeed, in all the former Soviet republics indelible (at least for a couple of generations) Soviet stigma. They are under-states for the West, an instrument of anti-Russian politics, nothing more. It is sad when personal ambitions overshadow the strategic state view. Only Nazarbayev clearly and immediately put the strategy above tactics.

      A full-fledged opponent of NATO is Russia, despite all the difficulties with rearmament. There are no others on this site, well, Belarus is all.

    A military alliance is necessary with the signing of treaties, etc.
    He obliges and guarantees. These are political levers. How the benefits of getting in line. Such alliances are necessary to suppress separatism. Syria, Libya, does not teach anything to some proud representatives. I'm without a stake. Uncle Sam is not sleeping! Shit and ruin - that's their motto. Now is the time to unite.
