    ArmInfo. "Creation of joint forces of quick response aims to
    consolidate the military component of CSTO. This will also help
    consolidate our potential", - said Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan,
    who is presiding over CSTO.

    As CSTO Press-secretary Vitaly Strugovets told ArmInfo, for his part,
    Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said that the participants in the
    meeting of CSTO member states coordinated the draft resolution on
    formation of joint forces within CSTO and "agreed that this issue
    should be settled". At the same time, Strugovets added that Uzbekistan
    can't yet agree with the version saying that the created forces are
    to include all special services.

    The joint forces will be used to repulse military aggression, conduct
    special operations to fight international terrorism, drug traffic,
    as well as to liquidate the consequences of emergency situations.

    At present the collective security system is based on the regional
    principle. There are three regional military groups: Russian-Belarus,
    Russian-Armenian and Central-Asian. It is supposed that the joint
    forces will be deployed in Russia. At present joint forces of quick
    response within the frames of CSTO in the Central Asian region exist
    on the level of battalions. The new format of the forces envisages
    creation of the bigger group made of the units of all the CSTO
    member-states.
