MOSCOW, 2 February (BelTA) – The Collective Security Treaty Organization is not interfering in the situation in Belarus, but is ready to provide assistance if necessary, CSTO Secretary General Stanislav Zas said at an online press briefing on the military and political situation in and around the CSTO’s area of responsibility, the CSTO's activities in 2020 and the goals for 2021, BelTA has learned.

The situation around Belarus remains tense, Stanislav Zas said. "The country is yet to solve a very important issue, namely to achieve an accord and people’s unity," he said. “It is obvious that the country must overcome the current temporary difficulties on its own. The CSTO has not interfered in this process and is not going to. Of course, our organization is ready to provide all possible assistance to Belarus if necessary," he added.
