TASHKENT (Sputnik) On December 15-16, a forum entitled, "Ensuring stability, sustainable development and national security in the context of globalization" was held in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan.

"The development of information technologies, with their ease of access, relatively low cost and other advantages, opened up new frontiers for terrorism and led to the emergence of its new form — cyberterrorism," Zhakhanov said at the forum.
