YEREVAN (YERKIR) - Armenia's Ambassador to OSCE Jivan Tabibian
participates in the extraordinary conference of the Conventional Forces
in Europe (CFE) Treaty, which is being held in Vienna June 12-15,
RA MFA Acting Spokesman Vladimir Karapetyan told PanARMENIAN.Net.
On the eve of the conference the Byelorussian MFA, which holds the
chairmanship in the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO),
spread a statement of its member-states, BelaPAN reports. Particularly
the statement says that CSTO member-states proceed from the stance
that the current situation with armaments in Europe does not meet
interests of keeping stability on the continent.
In this regard Armenia, Byelorussia, Kazakhstan, Kirgizia, Russia,
Tajikistan and Uzbekistan hope that conduction of the extraordinary
conference will serve as a beginning for serious negotiations with
participation of all CFE Treaty member-states, aimed at restoring
its viability.
The Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty was signed in Paris
in 1990.
30 states participate in it. The refreshed variant of the Treaty
was signed in 1999 in Istanbul. Only four countries have ratified
the document -Russia, Byelorussia, Kazakhstan and Ukraine. NATO
member-states refused to sign the Treaty until Russia withdraws its
forces from Georgia and Transdnestria.
