Speaking on Wednesday, he said member states must pursue a more serious joint fight against terrorism, extremism, drug trafficking and transnational organized crime. According to Rahmon, securing member states’ borders with countries outside the treaty is one of the Collective Security Treaty Organization’s key priorities.


The Tajik president also outlined his country’s plans for its term as chair of the organization, saying that strengthening security cooperation, increasing political coordination among members and implementing previous agreements would be on Dushanbe’s agenda. Tajikistan had previously been selected to assume the organization’s rotating chairmanship in 2026.


Rahmon went on to stress the need to improve the readiness of joint forces, expand military cooperation and increase member states’ capacity to manage potential crises. He described protecting borders and ensuring regional stability as a shared responsibility among the coalition’s members.


These remarks come after the secretary-general of the Collective Security Treaty Organization had also addressed the situation in Afghanistan and its potential consequences for the region. He had identified strengthening security along the Tajikistan-Afghanistan border and joint cooperation to counter cross-border threats as key priorities for the organization, emphasizing their importance for regional stability.


Russian President Vladimir Putin also announced during the Moscow summit that he was closely monitoring developments in Afghanistan. According to him, the situation in the country is particularly important to the Collective Security Treaty Organization’s security plans, especially those concerning the protection of member states’ borders.


The Collective Security Treaty Organization is a military and security alliance led by Russia, with six member states: Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Armenia.



Emomali Rahmon, the president of Tajikistan, stressed the need to strengthen security measures along his country’s border with Afghanistan at the Collective Security Treaty Organization summit in Moscow, calling for broader cooperation among the organization’s members to counter security threats.
