The time has come for setting up a base organization for the training of peacekeepers of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO).

The President of Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan, noted the above-said speaking at Tuesday’s meeting of the CSTO Collective Security Council, in Dushanbe, the capital city of Tajikistan, reported RIA Novosti news agency of Russia.

The President noted that Armenia, within the framework of its CSTO Chairmanship in 2016, will pay close attention to peace campaigns.

“[And] as foundation for this base organization, I propose to consider the training center of the Armed Forces Peacekeeping Brigade in Armenia,” added Sargsyan. “We [i.e. Armenia] are prepared to share the knowhow we have amassed during the ten-year participation in a variety of operations.”
