| Summary / Abstract (Note) | ON OCTOBER 14, 2017, the 137th Assembly of the Interparliamentary Union (IPU), the oldest international political organization, will open in St. Petersburg. It may be recalled that the previous, 136th Assembly that took place in Dhaka, Bangladesh, preparations for which were widely covered in International Affairs,1 was truly historic for the Russian delegation. For the first time in 20 years, Russia initiated an IPU draft resolution on a very important and relevant subject, "The Role of Parliament in Respecting the Principle of Non-intervention in the Internal Affairs of States," receiving overwhelming support from the majority of national delegations and ensuring its adoption by consensus. |
