Yerevan
We, the CSTO member states, express deep concern over the continuing deterioration of the international security system.
We consider it important to reaffirm our position in favor of upholding and strictly observing the principle of equal and indivisible security, enshrined, in particular, at the highest level in a number of documents of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, including the 1999 OSCE Charter for European Security and the 2010 Astana Commemorative Declaration of the OSCE Summit. This principle is based on the inseparable link between the security of each state and the security of all other countries, and on the inadmissibility of strengthening the security of some states at the expense of the security of others. It is important to ensure a uniform interpretation of this principle among all OSCE participating States.
We emphasize that, in accordance with the aforementioned documents, no state, group of states or organization can be assigned primary responsibility for maintaining peace and stability.
We support further strengthening the leading role of the UN Security Council in maintaining international peace and security, as entrusted to it by the UN Charter.
The CSTO member states call for building a world free from wars and conflicts, violence and pressure, for developing comprehensive, equal and mutually beneficial cooperation, and for achieving comprehensive, sustainable and cooperative security that takes into account the interests of all states and peoples.
