The meeting of the CIS heads of Government will be held in Sochi on June 7-8


On June 7-8, Sochi will host a meeting of the heads of government of the member countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States. This was announced by the Secretary General of the CIS Sergey Lebedev, speaking in Minsk on Tuesday at a regular meeting of the Council of Permanent Plenipotentiary Representatives of the CIS member states to the statutory and other CIS bodies, BelTA reports.
According to Lebedev, the agenda of the upcoming meeting of the CIS heads of government will be rich, and the forum participants will consider 15 issues. One of the main topics of discussion will be the agreement on free trade in services. The final approvals of the provisions of this document are currently underway. The agreement will be signed by the heads of government in Sochi, the CIS Secretary General said.
The meeting will also discuss the concept of industrial cooperation in the CIS and exchange views on topical issues of economic cooperation. Sochi in early summer will host not only the heads of government of the CIS. The resort city will become a platform where "a whole range of economic-oriented events will be held" - a meeting of the EAEU council, as well as a major economic forum, in which CIS countries are invited to participate, Belta writes.
