At a sitting of the RA National Security Council on December 22,
RA President Serzh Sargsyan presented the details of his visit to
Kazakhstan, Secretary of the Council Artur Baghdasaryan told reporters.
"The President outlines the highly important issues discussed at the
informal summit. The summit once again pointed out the necessity for
re-equipping the rapid reaction forces of the Collective Security
Treaty Organization (CSTO). The Presidents of the CSTO member-states
stated their readiness to carry through this important decision,"
Baghdasaryan said. He pointed out that the forces can be used in case
of a military aggression against one of the CSTO member-states. The
President also informed the attendees of the formation of a EurAsEC
special stabilization fund. It is a U.S. $10bn fund, which is supposed
to promote economic cooperation and facilitate the implementation
of programs.
Artur Baghdasaryan also reported that the second issue discussed by
the Council was foreign policy problems. The Council discussed and
approved four basic documents dealing with the main fields of the RA
Foreign Office’s activities.
