For 20 years since the institution of the CIS mission was established, we have conducted 119 observation missions in the CIS countries for parliamentary and presidential elections and referendums. We have gained good experience in this regard, Sergei Lebedev noted.
The main item is the results of Kazakhstan's CIS chairmanship in 2022, Sergei Lebedev noted. “Being the chairman of the CIS Executive Committee I would like to say that the results are not bad,” he said.
The CIS heads of government are planning to sign the agreement on free trade in services in May, First Deputy Chairman of the Executive Committee – CIS Executive Secretary Leonid Anfimov told reporters.
The work of the CIS observation mission will be based, as in all previous campaigns, on the principles of political neutrality, non-interference in the electoral process and in the internal affairs of the state, strictly in accordance with the Belarusian legislation.
The CIS member states should opt for a deeper integration, First Deputy Chairman of the CIS Executive Committee Leonid Anfimov told reporters, BelTA has learned.
