Lukashenko to present Belarus’ priorities at CSTO summit in Yerevan

Leaders of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) member states are set to take part in a session of the Collective Security Council, the organization's supreme body, in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, on 23 November, BelTA has learned.

Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko will be among the participants. The forthcoming summit is special for Belarus, as the country is taking over the CSTO presidency from Armenia. In this regard, the head of state will voice priority areas, which will be the focus of joint efforts in the coming year.

Aleksandr Lukashenko will brief his counterparts on the issue in detail. The topic itself has been under discussion for at least several past weeks. The work on the relevant proposals began long before the summit.
