PanARMENIAN.Net – Troops from five member-states of the Collective
Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) have arrived in Kyrgyzstan to take
part in joint military exercise.

Units from the CSTO’s six member-states — Armenia, Belarus,
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and Tajikistan — will take part in
the “Enduring Brotherhood – 2014” maneuvers that are scheduled to
start on July 29 in Ala-Too mountains, near Bishkek, reported the
RFE/RL’s Kyrgyz Service.

The drills will kick off 11 days after the CSTO’s Collective Rapid
Deployment Force, including Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Russian, and Tajik troops,
conducted a four-day drill in Russia’s Chelyabinsk region.
