MOSCOW, December 30. /ITAR-TASS/. Nikolai Bordyuzha, the general secretary of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO), has called for mobilizing efforts to counteract terrorism in connection with a series of terror strikes in Volgograd, southern Russia.

“This terrible strategy has re-emphasized the need to mobilize forces to counteract odious extremist acts and take a collective effort to avert acts of terrorism which undermine stability and security of the CSTO member countries,” Bordyuzha said on Monday.

He presented profound condolences to those who have lost their relatives and family members in the two recent bomb explosions which occurred in Volgograd on December 29 and 30.
