Collective Security Treaty warns: Afghanistan has become a hotbed of terrorist activity

The Collective Security Treaty Organization stated that the presence and operations of terrorist groups in Afghanistan have a direct negative impact on regional stability and security.


Andrey Serdyukov, Chairman of the Joint Staff of the organization, said during a press conference on Thursday that the activities of these groups pose a serious threat to Central Asian countries.


He specified that the continued operations of extremist networks on Afghan soil have heightened the risk of instability spreading to the southern borders of the member states of this pact.


At the same time, Sergei Shoigu, Secretary of Russia's Security Council, described the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border as the "main hotspot of security challenges" for the organization's members. Referring to the increased threats along the western and southern borders of this pact, he added: "The southern borders, especially in connection with Afghanistan, remain at the top of security concerns."


According to Shoigu, the security situation along the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border has received particular attention, and developments in this region could have far-reaching consequences for stability in Central Asia.


These warnings come as at least 17 armed clashes were reported along the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border last calendar year—incidents that have heightened security concerns among regional countries.

The Chairman of the Joint Staff of the Collective Security Treaty Organization warned against the expansion of activities by international extremist and terrorist groups in Afghanistan, emphasizing that the continuation of this situation could lead to the infiltration of insecurity and terrorism into neighboring countries.
