COLLECTIVE SECURITY TREATY ORGANIZATION NOT PLANNING NEW BASES
By empty (12/28/2005 issue of the CACI Analyst)
The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is not planning to establish new military bases in Central Asia, said CSTO Secretary General Nikolai Bordyuzha. \"The current military-political situation in the Central Asian region and within the CSTO activity area does not give grounds today to talk about setting up more military bases,\" Bordyuzha said at a press conference at the Interfax main office on Wednesday. \"The military bases that Russia has in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Armenia are enough to ensure the CSTO activity,\" he said.Visit also
