Russia assumes CIS chairmanship on January 1, 2024
The Concept for the Russian Federation’s chairmanship of the Commonwealth of Independent States in 2024 has been published.
The Russian Federation will chair the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) under the Concept of the Further Development of the CIS, endorsed by a CIS Heads of State Council resolution on December 18, 2020; the Economic Development Strategy of the CIS for the Period up to 2030 adopted by a resolution of the CIS Heads of Government on May 29, 2020, and other CIS fundamental programme documents.
Russia’s chairmanship of the CIS will be aimed at ensuring the continuity of its activities and reaching a number of goals, in part, to continue strengthening the CIS as an integration association; increase its international status; enhancing the CIS’s role as a representative venue for multilateral political dialogue on a broad range of issues; deepening its economic integration with a view to creating a common economic space; upgrading the mechanisms for countering, through cooperation, traditional and new challenges and threats to the security of the CIS member-states; promoting cooperation in the military area and on border security; expanding cultural and humanitarian interaction; aligning CIS activities with other integration associations with a view to creating a Greater Eurasian Partnership that unites the potential of all states and organisations of the region; and improving the CIS’s contractual and legal foundation and cooperation institutions.
An meaningful part of Russia’s chairmanship will be a support for measures to counter the falsification of history and attempts to rehabilitate Nazism, and to preserve the historical memory of the Great Patriotic War, including the genocide of the Soviet peoples. In this context, special attention will be paid to preparations for holding the Year of the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War in the CIS in 2025 – the Year of Peace and Unity in the Fight against Nazism. -0-
