Chief of General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces – Russia's First Deputy Defence Minister Valery Gerasimov said that Western countries are destroying the foundations of strategic stability.

He noted that 'today's meeting of CIS military officials is taking place amidst a rapidly changing military and political situation, which tends to become more complex'.
According to Valery Gerasimov, 'it is not without external influence that hotbeds of tension are emerging in various parts of the world, and international terrorism with the support of shadowy sponsors continues to be a global threat to peace'.
'Under these conditions,' the Russian military commander said, 'the challenges to the Commonwealth States are increasingly real and varied, and it forces us to have well-equipped and trained armed forces.'
He said it was a symbolism that today's joint work began with a visit to the exhibition of modern arms, military and special equipment used in the special military operation in Ukraine.
Valery Gerasimov added: 'It was certainly interesting and useful for you to learn about the achievements of Russia's military-industrial complex and promising developments in the military sphere'.
In the course of the meeting, he suggested that the meeting of the Committee should analyse the military and political situation developing in the world and on the borders of the Commonwealth countries, discuss the construction and development of joint military systems in the CIS format, consider the areas of combat training and field training of troops, taking into account the experience of modern combat operations, and discuss other issues of multilateral military cooperation of mutual interest.
