Public Radio, Armenia

RF Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov considers that regulation of border
issues on post-Soviet space must take place on the bilateral basis
rather than in the CIS format. The Foreign Minister said this in Minsk
today, summing up the results of the sitting of the CIS Council of
Foreign Ministers. In his words, the problems are of bilateral nature
and the Commonwealth is not eligible to resolve such problems.
IN this regard, Lavrov informed that in the near future Russia intends
to undertake demarcation of the borders with Ukraine.
