YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 3, NOYAN TAPAN. During the period of its
chairmanship of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO),
Armenia will lay the main stress on increasing the efficiency
of the CSTO's activities and will make every effort in this
direction. Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated this when receiving
on September 3 the secretaries of the Security Council of CSTO Member
States who had arrived in Armenia with the aim of partpicipating in
a meeting of the Committee of Secretaries of the CSTO Security Council.
According to a press release of the RA presidential press service, S.
Sargsyan expressed satisfaction with the level of cooperation within
the framework of CSTO. In his words, the importance of cooperation in
such key problems of national security as the fight against external
aggression, drug trafficking, illegal migration and terrorism is
beyond any doubt and does not permit a formal approach.
Speaking about the recent developments in South Ossetia, the Armenian
president said that these events showed the danger of attempts to
solve ethnic conflicts by force in the South Caucasus. In his opinion,
the military way of problem solution is lacking in prospects, and
the events in South Ossetia will have a sobering effect on those who
still have such illusions, increasing their military potential and
making bellicose statements. "Any attempts to impose solutions with
the use of force against a nation's will are fraught with serious
military and geopolitical consequnces," S. Sargsyan pointed out.
