The head of state announced this during a meeting of the CSTO Collective Security Council held in Moscow. According to the president, Kyrgyzstan aims to strengthen collective security and develop practical cooperation among the organization's member states.
Participation in exercises and fighting threats
Sadyr Japarov noted that Kyrgyz servicemen have already shown activity this year, participating in joint maneuvers across several countries. Additionally, in August, the republic served as the host for the "Center" exercises at the Edelweiss training center in Balykchy.
The President emphasized the need to consolidate efforts to counter several global challenges:
- international terrorism and extremism
- illicit drug trafficking
- transnational crime
Special attention was paid to the situation in Afghanistan. Japarov called for coordinated actions to prevent cross-border threats, as well as to promote economic recovery and address humanitarian issues in the country.
International Cooperation
In addition to cooperation within the CSTO, Kyrgyzstan confirmed its readiness for constructive work with partners during its membership in the UN Security Council, scheduled for 2027–2028.
Following the meeting in Moscow, state leaders signed 18 documents aimed at strengthening collective security.
