A delegation of the CSTO Secretariat, headed by CSTO Secretary General Talatbek Masadykov, is taking part in the 3rd International Security Industry Exhibition “National Security. Belarus 2026”, being held in Minsk from June 17 to 19, 2026.
The event, which has brought together more than 300 exhibitors, including delegations from all CSTO member states, was opened by State Secretary of the Security Council of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Volfovich and CSTO Secretary General Talatbek Masadykov.
In his welcoming remarks, Talatbek Masadykov stated in particular:
“The dismantling of key international legal arrangements and the transformation of the established arms control system have led to an increase in security challenges and risks, including those facing the CSTO member states. The Collective Security Treaty Organization will continue to uphold the principles of ensuring security, maintaining domestic political stability, and strengthening cooperation among the fraternal peoples of the CSTO member states through an effective collective security system.”
The CSTO Secretary General held a series of meetings on the sidelines of the exhibition and also took part in events included in its business program.
The exhibition will also host the 2nd Military-Economic Conference of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, entitled “Development of Cooperation among the Defense Industries (Military-Industrial Complexes) of the CSTO Member States: 20 Years of Practical Cooperation”, during which participants are expected to review the results of joint efforts in this field.
The exhibition will conclude with the 24th meeting of the Interstate Commission for Military-Economic Cooperation of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (ICMEC CSTO), whose agenda includes a number of current issues related to cooperation among the member states.
