November 11, Pozirk<\/em>.<\/strong> The European Union\u2019s system of countering hybrid threats often involves subversive operations in third countries, Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka said during a meeting of the Collective Security Treaty Organization\u2019s (CSTO) Security Council in Moscow on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAn example are the EU hybrid rapid response teams deployed ahead of important electoral campaigns in a number of post-Soviet states, allegedly to \u2018counter foreign interference,\u2019\u201d he said, describing \u201cinterference to counter interference\u201d as self-contradictory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka slammed Belarus\u2019 Western neighbors for labelling irregular migration and smuggling from Belarus as a \u201chybrid threat\u201d and blamed these problems on the West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0141uka\u0161enka called for increasing the military potential of the CSTO and welcomed decisions to form \u201cmobile air defense units\u201d and enhance the Collective Air Force. He stressed the need to adapt to modern warfare, including the widespread use of drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday evening, \u0141uka\u0161enka met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, thanking him for supplying Belarus with weapons and for Russia\u2019s readiness to \u201cdefend Belarus\u201d with troops stationed on the Western flank. He stressed that \u201cdespite the complexity of certain issues,\u201d the Belarusian army and the Russian force guarding the Western border had never been deployed in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Collective Security Treaty Organization is a military-political alliance whose stated goals include strengthening peace, international and regional security and stability, and protecting its member states\u2019 independence, territorial integrity and sovereignty. Its members are Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Armenia has suspended its participation in the CSTO, accusing some of its members of \u201cplanning a war\u201d against Armenia alongside Azerbaijan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
