The Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) is holding talks with the UN on using its peacekeeping forces in specific regions, although no decision has yet been adopted.

The CSTO Secretary General Nikolay Bordyuzha told the aforementioned to RIA Novosti on Tuesday.

“We worked out several options for using our peacekeepers with the UN. And now we are finalizing them. But no specific decisions have been taken, although we have held such talks recently, several months ago, at the UN headquarters. And now I will leave for New York to attend the ministerial week of the UN General Assembly, during which I have also planned meetings with the leadership of the UN peacekeeping operations departments. We will also discuss the specific use of our peacekeepers,” he said.

In Bordyuzha’s words, the issue concerns specific regions of the world, although he refrained from mentioning them. At the same time, he noted that the CSTO forces are unlikely to be used in eastern Ukraine.

“The peacekeeping forces are introduced upon the agreement of the conflicting parties. I don’t think that, for instance, Ukraine, whose leadership carries out anti-Russian rhetoric, will agree to the allocation of the Russia allies to dissever the two conflicting parties. I don’t think this will happen,” he stated.

The CSTO was established on the basis of the Agreement of the Collective Security signed on 15 May 1992 by the CIS member-states. The members of the CSTO are Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan. In late June 2012, Uzbekistan announced that it is withdrawing from its membership to the organization.
