The Executive Committee of the Commonwealth of Independent States will host a meeting of the Information Council today. Heads of state news agencies plan to discuss the main criteria in covering cultural values and traditions of the peoples of the Commonwealth. After all, the CIS declared the year 2018 the Year of Culture.
Prior to the meeting, the heads of news agencies of Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan will get acquainted with the work of the largest news agency in Belarus - BelTA.
In fact, this year, the Belarusian Telegraph Agency is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Names changed, but the Agency has always been committed to working efficiently and reliably. The Agency’s photo chronicle became a historical documentary chronicle of Belarus. Today, the Belarusian Telegraph Agency is part of the global media system.
