The media have already dubbed the large-scale meeting as global business on one platform. This year, the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum has gathered 12,000 businessmen and politicians from 130 countries.
As of now, about 10 meetings and round tables have already taken place. Within 3 days, global and regional economic issues will be discussed there. Today, the discussions focused on the development of cooperation within the BRICS and CIS. Among them are green technologies in nuclear energy and prospects for tourism. For the first time, Belarus presents its stand at the forum.
In late 2016, the CIS was 25 years old. The Commonwealth is not only a platform for dialogue. Today, it is a platform for the development of economic and business interaction.
