CSTO Secretary-General Taalatbek Masadykov told Russia’s TASS news agency that member states have agreed on a list of military and non-military equipment requested by Tajikistan, but details of the supplies have not been disclosed.
Masadykov said security along the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border is a priority for all CSTO member states.
