Youth Forum signs off
25 October 2014
On 23-25 October, SPB hosted the first CIS Youth Parliamentarian Forum. At the inaugural plenary meeting on 23 October Chairperson of the IPA CIS Council Valentina Matvienko addressed the Forum with a welcoming address. "It was our common decision – yours and the Assembly’s – to convene this Forum. It was called for by the growing voice of the youth and youth-led organizations in our body politics. This is an organic and welcome trend since it is the youth who will have to eventually assume the responsibility for their nations", said the Speaker.
