Leaders of the Collective Security Treaty Organization agreed Friday to create an information security center in Moscow.
Kyrgyz President Kurmanbek Bakiyev, whose country is hosting a two-day CSTO summit in Cholpon-Ata on Saturday and Sunday, said the center will help member states exchange information on Internet security and their experiences with combating cyber crime.
A center for youth education will also be established in Cholpon-Ata, Bakiyev said.
The CSTO, a security group comprised of Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, agreed in June to form a joint rapid reaction force.
