Read the text of the statement in full (Kremlin.ru | Telegraph).
We, the members of the Collective Security Council of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, confirm our unconditional commitment to the goals established in the Treaty and the CSTO Treaty - creating favorable and stable conditions for the comprehensive development of the member states and ensuring security, sovereignty and territorial integrity.
We emphasize that the CSTO is based on the principles of the priority of political and diplomatic means in solving and resolving conflicts, mutual respect and equality, non-interference in the internal affairs of countries, and taking into account their legitimate interests.
We note that the situation in the world today is undergoing qualitative changes. The formation of a fair multipolar world order continues. The strengthening of new centers of influence is accompanied by increased competition and the appearance of new challenges to international security and global stability.
In the context of ongoing turmoil in world politics and international relations, sustainable and predictable models of interstate interaction take on special value. The CSTO, with time-tested mechanisms, forces and means, is a system-building element of a sustainable architecture of equal and indivisible security in Eurasia, the formation of which meets the fundamental interests of the member states.
In this context, the CSTO member states will take part in the development of the Eurasian Convention for Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century.
In the 85th year since the beginning of the Great Patriotic War in 1941-1945, we especially emphasize the importance of the historical memory of the victory of the Soviet Union as an important element in the common historical heritage of our people.
