CSTO Official Warns of Growing Risk of Large-Scale Conflicts
A senior official from the Collective Security Treaty Organization said global contradictions are rising as international mechanisms struggle to resolve disputes between states and blocs, according to TASS.

A representative of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), identified as Masadykov, said the risks of large-scale conflicts with potentially catastrophic consequences are increasing, according to a report by Russian state news agency TASS.
Masadykov said the ongoing transformation of the international relations system "is accompanied by a growing number of global contradictions" and "demonstrates the low capacity of existing political and legal mechanisms to effectively resolve emerging conflicts between countries and blocs," TASS reported, citing the official.
The statement did not specify particular countries or blocs involved in the contradictions described, according to the available report.
The CSTO is a Russia-led military alliance that includes several former Soviet states. TASS did not provide additional details on the venue or occasion of the remarks in the excerpt reviewed.
TASS is a Russian state-owned news agency. The claims in this report have not been independently verified by other outlets.
