The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) members have agreed to reform the organization making it more efficient in crises prevention and addressing situations like the recent violence in Kyrgyzstan.
The CSTO member-states’ leaders announced the decision following an informal summit which was held at the Armenian capital of Yerevan on Friday.
“All of us have agreed that lessons learned from the events in Kyrgyzstan prompt us to make the [crisis response] mechanism more efficient,” President Dmitry Medvedev said addressing the media after the gathering.
He said that the proposals on amendments to the CSTO charter documents will be drafted by December this year, when the official summit of the organization is due to be held in Moscow. This will be done to create more efficient institutions, “perhaps with broader powers,” Medvedev noted.
“Indeed, such decisions are made by consensus. But, nevertheless, everyone understands that in some cases the organization should act faster and more efficiently,” he said.
The leaders have come to a common conclusion that they should carefully examine the experience of organizations with longer history – such as NATO, the EU and the UN. “I hope the CSTO secretariat will sum it up and offer a report for an assessment,” Medvedev said.
The CSTO member states are Russia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

Bushehr nuclear saga enters final chapterRussia has started loading fuel into the reactor at Iran’s first nuclear power plant – a key step in making the Bushehr station operational. But what is the project about? Purely business, or an ace in a political hand? |

Bushehr is purely economic, not political issue – analystThe Russian-built nuclear power plant in Iran’s Bushehr is an economic project and has nothing to do with politics, analyst Sergey Pereslegin has told RT. |
The CSTO organisation absolutely need to examine the NATO,EU,and UN, extraordinarily careful and must look at each and every policy from these biased organisations and I could not agree with the Armenian Summit between Armenia,Belarus,Kazakhstan,Kyrgyzstan,Russia, and Tajikistan more. NATO,EU, and the UN have indeed made a gigantic mess of all thing's as of late and have on a majority always slammed what Russia and it's allies have done, But if you was to look at the facts what Russia and her five other companions have done is settle an awful lot of disputes and are working hard accordingly, now all of these Countries are are part of the CIS too so basically their major examinations are indeed more important to counter some if not all of the huge mistakes that the NATO,EU, and UN have made. So I pledge this to all of the countries involved do some intricate studying and show the world that both CSTO and CIS are dynamic and flawless, all these six nations and are brothers and sisters shoulder to shoulder with each other and are willing to back each other 100% either through the good and bad time's and will not suffer the gullibility of NATO,EU, and UN organisations being run by Washington DC not by the people that live normal lives in them. Finally let CSTO and CIS live forever in peace and harmony this world needs it because all of the insanity and craziness always seems to be coming from the organisations of NATO,EU, and the UN, for they are all too big for their boot's.
