Fighting with corruption and illegal migration will dominate the agenda
of a regular conference of the Council of CIS Interior Ministers that
will bring together the ministers from Armenia, Belarus, Georgia,
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Ukraine,
and Uzbekistan.
Russian Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev said upon arrival in
Yerevan the ministers were supposed to examine practical actions
under a joint plan for rebuffing terrorism.
Another issue on the agenda is an interstate databank that will be
created on the basis of Information and Analysis Center of the Russian
Interior Ministry.
“Besides, we’ll consider legal acts underlying our cooperation and
changes in the Regulations for Unified Procedures of Interstate
Search for Wanted People,” Nurgaliyev said. He believes the Council
of Interior Ministries is the most smoothly functioning executive
agency in the CIS.
“Its participants are making a good contribution to fighting with
trans-border crime and international terrorism,” Nurgaliyev said.
CIS Executive Secretary Vladimir Rushailo and the Interpol Secretary
General, Kenneth Noble has also come to Yerevan to attend the
conference. Participants in the meeting are expected to meet with
President Robert Kocharian and to visit the Holy Echmiadzin, the main
see of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
