Integration as a development factor - Boris Zalessky - Bog

The Republic of Belarus is chairing the Commonwealth of Independent States in 2021. The concept of its presidency provides for the development of coordinated approaches to solving urgent issues of regional cooperation, strengthening multilateral cooperation for a comprehensive and balanced economic and social development of all post-Soviet states. Particular attention is being paid to achieving synergy among members of the Commonwealth in various integration associations and organizations such as the Eurasian Economic Union, the Collective Security Treaty Organization and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, as well as in bilateral format. Media coverage of this cooperation is also expected to increase. In the sphere of inter-regional and cross-border cooperation we are talking about the development of socio-economic potential of regions, the establishment of direct links between business entities, the formation and implementation of a coordinated regional policy. How are these integration building plans realized in practice? The answer to this question is in the materials of the proposed study.
