The meeting followed up Germany’s proposal on establishing the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Task Force during the Intermediate Senior Officials’ Meeting in Moscow 2016 which aims to fostering transparency, strengthening the visibility of the process, improving effectiveness without creating additional structure or bodies.
