    ARMENIA RATIFIES CSTO SECURITY AGREEMENT

    The Armenian parliament on Tuesday ratified a Collective Security
    Treaty Organization (CSTO) agreement concerning the Collective Rapid
    Reaction Force (CRRF).

    During its debate in the Armenian National Assembly, chairman of the
    regular parliamentary commission on foreign relations Armen Rustamian
    said that the decision to use the CRRF must be based on consensus.

    "Naturally, the CRRF is an additional leverage of security.

    However, in the event of aggression Armenia must rely, first of all,
    on itself only," he said.

    The Armenian Parliament also ratified the CSTO agreement about the
    basic principles for creating a system of hidden control of the
    collective security system.

    Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan and
    Uzbekistan are all apart of the CSTO.
