Federation Council Deputy Speaker Alexander Torshin proposed to establish an international commission and invite Turkey and Azerbaijan to join the commission in order to prevent the overgrowing tension in the region of North Caucasus, the Turkish Cihan information agency reported.
Torshin said that the tension and separatism are intensifying in the North Caucasus recently. Under the current terms the North Caucasian Commission cannot function fruitfully and therefore, an international commission with participation of countries of the region is needed.
