On September 25, 2025, the Secretariat of the Collective Security Treaty Organization held a roundtable discussion on "The Emerging Architecture of International Relations and Prospects for a Eurasian Security System." The event brought together leading representatives of the analytical community and experts from the foreign policy agencies of the CSTO member states, according to the Organization's press service.
The discussion was attended by the heads of key Russian scientific and analytical centers. Experts from Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan also joined the discussion via videoconference.
CSTO Secretary General Imangali Tasmagambetov welcomed the event participants. In his address, he emphasized the importance of working together in an unstable international environment. "In a situation of significantly increased challenges and threats, we strive to better understand the essence of what is happening in the world and in our region, and to develop and implement the measures necessary to protect the interests of CSTO member states. This is precisely what motivates us to strengthen our cooperation with the expert community," the CSTO Secretary General noted.
The dialogue focused on the interaction of integration associations in the Eurasian space—the CSTO, the CIS, and the EAEU—as well as the prospects for forming a Greater Eurasian Partnership. Particular attention was paid to supporting the Issyk-Kul Expert Initiative, which aims to deepen cooperation between analytical centers in the region.
The roundtable participants developed recommendations aimed at further strengthening Central Eurasia as a space of security, stability, and sustainable development.
