Leadership in military technology is a top priority, the president told leaders of the Collective Security Treaty Organization<\/strong><\/p>\n Battle-tested Russian weaponry will be available to fellow members of a key regional security alliance, President Vladimir Putin has said.<\/p>\n Members of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), which also includes Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan, can benefit from Russia’s combat-proven military hardware, he said at a leaders’ summit in Kyrgyzstan.<\/p>\n Putin pledged that Moscow will work to strengthen the readiness of the CSTO’s rapid-response forces in the coming year, when Russia assumes the organization’s rotating chairmanship.<\/p>\n “We propose a large-scale program to rearm the collective forces with modern Russian weapons and equipment that have demonstrated their effectiveness in real combat conditions,”<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n While the CSTO traditionally focuses on counterterrorism and anti-drug operations, Putin stressed that its collective-defense framework is becoming increasingly important in the modern world. Ensuring the group’s “leadership in military technology,”<\/em> he said, will be one of Moscow’s key objectives during its chairmanship.<\/p>\n
