Abstract
The article notes that the armed conflicts emerged after collapse of the Soviet Union on the territories of the CIS member states gave rise to conclusion of agreements in the sphere of the international humanitarian law (IHL). The first of them was the agreement on immediate measures to protect victims of armed conflicts in 1993. Later in the post-Soviet space the IPA CIS began to play an active role in legislative activity for convergence and harmonization of laws of the states ‒ participants of CIS, including the development of legislation in the sphere of IHL.
The authors analyze the model laws in the field of IHL, adopted by the Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of the CIS member states (IPA CIS).
