Belarusian Defence Minister Viktar Khrenin, heading a delegation from the Armed Forces, has arrived in Russia to attend meetings of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO). The Belarusian Defence Ministry’s press service reported this.
Khrenin will take part in a joint meeting of the CSTO Council of Foreign Ministers, Council of Defence Ministers and Committee of Secretaries of Security Councils, as well as a session of the organisation’s Collective Security Council.
According to the Defence Ministry, the agenda includes more than 30 issues. These include joint operational and combat training, biological security, and the development of the CSTO’s collective security forces and capabilities.
Judging by the photographs, Belarusian Foreign Minister Maksim Ryzhankou also travelled to Moscow with Khrenin.
In early October, Khrenin had already visited Russia, where he observed the final stage of the Centre-2026 military exercises. The same training ground hosted the CSTO exercises Interaction-2026, Search-2026 and Echelon-2026.
