UNITED NATIONS, March 11 (Itar-Tass) — General Secretary of the
Collective Security Treaty Organization (ODKB) Nikolai Bordyuzha
briefed on Thursday the UN Counter-Terrorism Committee (CTC) on
the potential, tasks and mission of the organization that unites
six CIS countries ~V Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kirgizia, Russia
and Tajikistan.

~SI felt the interest of CTC members in the information about the
activities of our organization~T, Bordyuzha told Tass. He said ODKB
actively works to create the necessary legal and information conditions
for efficient operations of special services and law enforcers in
fighting terrorism.

He said CTC members were mostly interested in the potential of the
organization, the level of interaction of member-states, the programs
under implementation and practical results, as well as human rights
observation.

ODKB became an international regional organization after its charter
came into force on September 18, 2003 and after its registration by
the UN Secretariat in December 2003. It enjoys the observer status
at the UN General Assembly.

~SI am sure that in the final end a truly efficient system of
collective security will be created that will include not only concrete
operations and activities of special services, but of executive bodies
of all countries as well~T, Bordyuzha said.
