    Almaty, 22 April: Russian President Vladimir Putin has greeted those
    attending the third Eurasian Media Forum, which opened in Almaty
    today.

    "Your authoritative association makes a remarkable contribution to
    developing dialogue between the representatives of the media on the
    (Eurasian) continent," Putin noted in his message, the text of which
    was read out before those present at the forum by Russian Ambassador
    to Kazakhstan Vladimir Babichev.

    "Such topical issues as humanitarian cooperation, forming a common
    information space and the role of the media in modern global and
    regional processes are in the centre of the forum's attention," the
    head of the Russian state noted.

    He also underlined the importance of discussing such issues at the
    scheduled media forum as "bringing together the journalistic
    profession to counter international terrorism, extremism and drug
    trafficking".

    "Today, this joint work has very topical significance. I wish you
    success," Putin noted in his message.

    OSCE Secretary-General Jan Kubis, Secretary-General of the Eurasian
    Economic Community Grigoriy Rapota and the former Armenian prime
    minister, Armen Sarkisyan, who attended the first Eurasian Media
    Forum, also greeted from the rostrum those attending the Eurasian
    Media Forum.

    A video address by Prince Hasan Bin-Talal of Jordan was also shown to
    the participants in the forum.
