The member countries of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) intend to create a new military structure on their borders in response to the deployment of U.S. missile shield elements on the territory of the Czech Republic and Poland, CSTO General Secretary Nikolay Bordyuzha said.

He pointed out that all CSTO member states were concerned over the creation of military facilities and such complicated defense structures as the U.S. missile shield.

"The U.S. defense system can be transformed in different ways, which may affect the security of CSTO countries greatly," Bordyuzha said, adding the CSTO plans to expand cooperation with the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), particularly regarding the security issue.

For his part, RF Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Denisov said that the plan of expansion will be presented in a joint communiqué of CSTO member countries. "We coordinate our strategic positions on global and regional security," he said.

The CSTO unites Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Tajikistan. The SCO brings together Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, China, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
