Director of the Russian MFA Department on CIS Vyacheslav Shumski
told RIA Novosti that that the sitting of the CIS Council of Foreign
Ministers will take place in Astana on April 25. He said the agenda
of the sitting has not been fixed yet, but did not rule out that
the Foreign Ministers of CIS member states will discuss the issue of
reforming the structures of the Commonwealth.

"I do not rule out that the issue may be presented at the sitting
of the Foreign Ministers, since according to the decision of the
Council of Presidents, the work should be completed by June and must
be reported to the Presidents," the diplomat added.

The previous sitting of the Council of Foreign Ministers was held in
Minsk in November. Then the decision was taken to establish a working
group on reformation of the Commonwealth structures.
