    CIS body chief suggests single global list of terrorist groups

    Interfax-Kazakhstan news agency
    26 Jan 05



    Almaty, 26 January: The world community should form a single list of
    terrorist and extremist organizations in addition to other measures in
    order to fight terrorism effectively, the head of the CIS
    Antiterrorist Centre, Boris Mylnikov, told a session of the UN
    Security Council Counter-Terrorism Committee in Almaty on Wednesday
    [26 January].

    Mylnikov regards countries forming a single list of terrorist and
    extremist organizations as "an effective way of anti-terrorist
    cooperation".

    He recalled that similar lists had already been adopted within a
    number of regional organizations, particularly within the CSTO
    [Collective Security Treaty Organization; members are Armenia,
    Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Russia] and the SCO
    [Shanghai Cooperation Organization; members are China, Kazakhstan,
    Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Russia].

    [Passage omitted: exchange of information about terrorist
    organizations is necessary to work out this kind of list]

    [In a separate report, in Russian, at 1448 gmt, the
    Interfax-Kazakhstan news agency quoted Mylnikov as saying that a draft
    agreement on exchange of information about terrorist and extremist
    organizations is being considered in the CIS. He said, according to
    the agency, was no similar agreement in the world.]
