"It’s planned to consider issues related to the neutralization of threats to national security in the migration area and the regulation of migration processes in the interests of the socio-economic development of the country and socio-political stability," the Kremlin said in a statement.
Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev is set to deliver a report, the Kremlin said. In August, he said that members of the commission on improving the government’s migration policy had been preparing for such a meeting for more than six months and done a lot of work.
The last meeting of an expanded Security Council was held in May. Putin routinely, as a rule, once a week, holds current-affairs meetings with the Security Council’s permanent members.
