Ashgabat to Host Next CIS Heads of Government Meeting

According to Lebedev, CIS member states continue to strengthen cooperation in areas such as economy, agriculture, forestry, and environmental security. The meeting in Minsk placed special emphasis on the sustainable development of the forestry sector, and a cooperation strategy in this area was approved through 2035.

Additionally, an agreement was signed on joint measures to combat locust infestations, which pose periodic threats to the region’s agriculture.

It is expected that the Ashgabat meeting will continue discussions on these and other priority areas, including the expansion of trade and economic ties and the development of infrastructure projects within the CIS framework.
