    LAVROV: HUMANITARIAN COOPERATION WITH CIS IS RUSSIA'S PRIORITY

    Regnum, Russia
    Sept 30 2006

    "Russia regards developing humanitarian cooperation within the CIS
    space as its priority," Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov said in
    his welcome message to participants of scholarly and expert conference
    "Mass media and new state relations in the Caucasus region."

    "Common humanitarian space is called to preserve and to consolidate
    diverse human ties among our peoples, including civil society
    institutes, to strengthen adherence to fundamental values, such as
    tolerance and mutual respect. Member states of the commonwealth
    for centuries have been at the turn of civilizations from time
    immemorial. Our common historical and cultural heritage creates
    good preconditions for us to make our common unique contribution
    to supporting inter-civilization accord in the world. I wish to the
    forum's participants fruitful work aimed at developing cooperation
    between Russia and other Caucasian states in the spheres of culture,
    education, science, information, and the whole complex of humanitarian
    ties;" Sergey Lavrov said in his message read out to the conference
    participants by Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Russia
    to Armenia Nikolay Pavlov.

    Representatives of mass media, analysts from Russia, Georgia, Armenia,
    and Azerbaijan participated in the conference, which took place at
    the Russian-Armenian (Slavic) state university.
