Ukraine is hoping to join the CIS Humanitarian Cooperation Council in the nearest future, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kostiantyn Hryschenko said.
"We are now working on joining the Humanitarian Cooperation Council and the Interstate Humanitarian Cooperation Foundation […] We are hoping to make the needed headway within the shortest time possible," Hryschenko said opening the meeting of the CIS Foreign Ministers Council in Kyiv on Friday.
Ukraine is currently in the process of joining various CIS bodies and is intensifying its activities in the CIS, he said.
The intensification of Ukraine’s activities in the CIS is confirmed by the fact that Ukraine will host the 6th CIS creative and scientific intelligentsia forum in fall 2011.
