Dodon Called for Cooperation between the CIS and the European Union

President of Moldova Igor Dodon at a meeting of CIS Heads of State Council of State in Ashgabat called for cooperation between the Commonwealth and the European Union. “At present, the CIS countries are building their relations with reputable international organizations mainly on a bilateral basis. I think it’s worth starting a dialogue with the European Union and other international organizations on concluding a cooperation agreement with the Commonwealth of Independent States,” Dodon said during the speech. According to Dodon, Moldova is interested in making the CIS as open as possible for cooperation with other international organizations of the West and the East, so that the countries of the Commonwealth are “involved in large-scale infrastructure and other projects in Eurasia.” “It is necessary to raise the international status of the CIS, to make efforts so that the Commonwealth becomes an effective partner of other international organizations. I am sure it will be beneficial to all CIS member states,” added Dodon. Point
