MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Europe should revitalize its existing security structures and mechanisms instead of establishing new ones, OSCE Secretary General Lamberto Zannier said Thursday.
"I am convinced that we do not need new security structures or formats in Europe, what we need to do is to revitalize the ones that we have, adapt them to contemporary security challenges, and most important to renew our effort and commitment to European security as a common project," Zannier said at the fifth Moscow Conference on International Security (MCIS), stressing that inspiration could be found in the OSCE.
The two-day MCIS kicked off in the Russian capital on Wednesday with a focus on the fight against terrorism. The event brings together over 500 participants, including military officials and experts.
