Miory Regional Executive Committee
A delegation from the Apparatus of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of Russia arrived in Vitebsk on a three-day working visit to address issues related to the preparation of the regional center, as well as Polotsk and Novopolotsk, for the holding of the XI Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia.
This is the first visit to the Vitebsk Region by representatives of the Russian organizer of the forum. The working group plans to visit organizations, enterprises, and a number of facilities that will be involved in the business program of the forum. According to the head of the delegation, First Deputy Head of the Apparatus of the Federation Council Vitaly Semikin, holding the forum across three cities imposes certain specifics on preparations. Nevertheless, as the head of the delegation clarified, this will not bring any additional difficulties. On the contrary, the more territories are covered, the wider the opportunities to demonstrate achievements and share experience, which will allow elevating relations between the two countries to a higher level, Vitaly Semikin is confident.
According to the Deputy Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee Vyacheslav Durnov, active work is currently underway at facilities in the three cities. The host side is ready to present its vision of organizational aspects and listen to all suggestions and comments in order to conduct the forum at the highest organizational level. By June 10, 2024, all facilities that will be involved in the XI Forum of Regions of Belarus and Russia must be ready.
