The strategic guideline for the Collective Security Treaty Organisation member states’ joint work is to build an influential and effective international organisation able to take on responsibility for security and stability in the Eurasian area.

Speaking at a meeting of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation’s Collective Security Council, President Vladimir Putin noted that the organisation should expand its cooperation with other international and regional organisations such as the United Nations, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation. Cooperation could involve partnership in peacekeeping operations and joint work in the fight against terrorism and other threats.
