BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 9. Tajikistan highlights
border security at the CSTO foreign ministers meeting in Kazan.
This is reflected in a statement by Tajikistan's Ministry of
Foreign Affairs.
Meanwhile, the Tajik delegation, led by Foreign Minister
Sirojiddin Mukhriddin, attended the meeting of the Council of
Foreign Ministers of the Collective Security Treaty Organization
(CSTO), held in Kazan, Russia, on June 10.
In the course of the meeting, heads of foreign ministries
exchanged views on multilateral cooperation within the CSTO
framework and discussed measures to respond to regional and
international challenges and threats in the Organization’s area of
responsibility.
The ministers approved several decisions aimed at further
strengthening the CSTO’s activities and adopted joint statements on
key international security issues.
The documents included statements marking the 85th anniversary
of the beginning of the 1941–1945 Great Patriotic War, preventing
an arms race in outer space, countering the use of information and
communication technologies for sabotage and terrorist purposes, as
well as strengthening the role of international law and adherence
to the principles of the UN Charter.
Particular attention was paid to accelerating the implementation
of the CSTO Targeted Interstate Program on strengthening the
Tajik-Afghan border.
The issue remains a priority for Tajikistan amid ongoing
regional security challenges, as the country continues advocating
for enhanced cooperation and coordinated measures among CSTO member
states to address cross-border threats.
