This was reported on the organization's official website.
The meeting discussed the results of the Commission's activities to implement the decisions of the XXII meeting of the Interstate Commission on Foreign Economic Relations, which took place in September 2024 in Bishkek (Kyrgyz Republic).
The meeting agenda addressed areas for the further development of military-economic cooperation within the CSTO. Key issues included organizing personnel training for enterprises and organizations in the defense-industrial complexes of CSTO member states, creating an interstate cataloging system for armed forces supplies, and ensuring mutual protection of intellectual property rights obtained and used during military-economic cooperation. The Commission adopted appropriate decisions on all issues considered.
