The CIS was established on December 8, 1991, by the leaders of Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine. The other eight republics that joined the CIS were Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Georgia joined the CIS in 1993, but suspended its participation in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>The CIS was founded with the goal of promoting economic cooperation and political integration among its member states. However, the CIS has been largely ineffective in achieving these goals. The organization has been plagued by internal divisions and disagreements, and it has failed to develop into a strong regional bloc.<\/p>\n<p>Despite its shortcomings, the CIS remains an important forum for dialogue and cooperation among its member states. The CIS has played a role in resolving several disputes between its member states, and it has provided a platform for economic cooperation. The CIS is likely to continue to play an important role in the region in the years to come.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A: 11. This is the correct answer. The CIS consists of 11 of the 15 former constituent republics of the Soviet Union.<\/li>\n<li>Option B: 10. This is incorrect.
