CSTO Secretary General Nikolai Bordyuzha said at a round-table conference on stability in Central Asia in Alma Ata today that the organization was preparing for risks comparable with the revolution in Kyrgyzstan of April 7, 2010, when President Kurmanbek Bakiyev’s power was taken by Rosa Otumbayeva.
Bordyuzha plans to focus on domestic risks, drug trafficking problems and religious extremism. The official added that only 15% of Syrians were part of the opposition, the rest were Islamic militants.
