“Our cooperation is developing successfully and is characterized by
stable bilateral ties at the level of defense ministers and the armed
forces as a whole. Multilateral cooperation between the Republic of
Belarus and the Kyrgyz Republic within the CSTO is also gaining
momentum. Belarusian and Kyrgyz servicemen regularly take part in joint
activities. In October 2026, Belarus plans to host the CSTO peacekeeping
exercise the Nerushimoye Bratstvo [Indestructible Brotherhood] 2026
and the CSTO specialized exercise Barrier 2026 involving the chemical,
biological, radiological protection and medical support formations. We
will be pleased to welcome Kyrgyz servicemen to Belarus to participate
in these exercises,” he said.
Ruslan Mukambetov emphasized that Belarus and Kyrgyzstan enjoy
warm, friendly relations with strong potential for expansion and
strengthening: “We are interested in continuing the exchange of
experience between specialists of our countries, in developing mutually
beneficial cooperation, and we intend to advance it in all areas of
mutual interest.”
