Cooperation of UN and Eurasian Economic Community
The member-states of the Eurasian Economic Community passed over the document to the members of the UN General Assembly, IRNA reported.
The organisation, according to its Secretary General, Tair Mansurov, is becoming an important institution of regional interaction and a significant element of the formation of an effective system providing stability in the region and expansion of its economic cooperation.
Tair Mansurov, Secretary General, Eurasian Economic Community says of course, today, the Eurasian Economic Community is a most successful integration structures which unites 6 states.
For example, the decision taken by the heads of states on the 6th of October this year in Dushanbe, concerning the formation of the customs union meeting world standard including common customs territory, common borders and common customs tolls for 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Now, they have to form that very customs union in compliance with the world practice.
As part of cooperation between the Eurasian Economic Community and the United Nations, the UN Economic Commission for Europe, the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific and the United Nations Development Programme all have become one of the key partners of the Eurasian Economic Community.
According to Mansurov, the central place in cooperation issues are taken by those regarding rational and effective use of fuel and energy resources, development of international transport infrastructures and aspects of nature preservation.
Tair Mansurov, Secretary General, Eurasian Economic Community says over those two days, meeting with the administration of the United Nations, in compliance with the instruction given by the heads of states, he handed them the address where the leaders of these countries are asking to attract attention of international experts for developing a conception from effective use of water and energy resources of the Central Asian region.
Accruing to Tair Mansurov, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan are now water users of one wide district.
But no full conception that would satisfy all the sides and would meet all the requirements of use of water and energy resources has been developed yet. Perhaps, UN experts will give the region’s states a hand with the solution of this problem, the head of Mansurov noted.
