/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Member-states of the Collective Security Treaty
Organization (CSTO) are concerned over the enlargement of NATO military
infrastructure immediately near the borders of the organization,
CSTO Sec. Gen. Nikolay Bordyuzha stated during the first media forum
entitled "The Role and Place of Media in Counteraction of Threats of
XXI Century".

He said the growing activity of NATO, the European Union and
third countries does not contribute to stability in the post-soviet
territories. "In fact, the North Atlantic alliance carries out a policy
line of introducing and strengthening the military-political presence
of NATO or its separate member-states, including the United States
in the Caucasus and the Central Asia," the Sec. Gen. underscored.

Nikolai Bordyuzha also indicated that the matter is about efforts to
create competitive to CSTO regional structures aimed at "providing
security and the fight against terrorism", RIA "Novosti" reports.

Armenia, Byelorussia, Kazakhstan, Kirgizia, Russia, Tajikistan and
Uzbekistan are CSTO member-states.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
