The ninth meeting of the working group “Tajikistan-Russia” took place in Sochi.

The ninth meeting of the Tajik-Russian working group on labor migration was held on September 16 in Sochi as part of the International Labor Protection Week.

As reported by the press service of the Ministry of Labor and Migration of Tajikistan in Russia, the main topic was the discussion of the implementation of the bilateral agreement on the organized recruitment of Tajik citizens for work in Russia.

The Ministry of Labor noted that the parties considered issues related to the organization of medical examinations and the conduct of a comprehensive exam in the Russian language, history, and legislation of Russia on the territory of Tajikistan.

The negotiations were conducted by Sharif Norzoda, Deputy Minister of Labor and Migration of Tajikistan, and Denis Vasilyev, Deputy Head of the Federal Labor and Employment Service of Russia.

The activities of the “Passport and Visa Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia” in Dushanbe and the presentation of new digital tools from Russia were in the spotlight.

It was noted that the Tajik side expressed concern about the social and legal problems of migrants in Russia and emphasized the need for closer cooperation.

The necessity of creating a training base in Tajikistan for the vocational training of labor migrants according to Russian standards was also discussed, as stated in the report.

Experts note that such meetings are largely symbolic and do not have a significant practical impact. They point out that the situation of Tajik migrants in Russia becomes increasingly complicated each year.
