What does the inter-parliamentary conference focus on?

Lawmakers from more than forty-one countries, or rather from forty countries, meet in Russia Wednesday for an inter-parliamentary conference on fighting terrorism. The St. Petersburg meeting focuses on anti-terrorist laws and preventing terrorists from raising money. The conference follows a two-day meeting in St. Petersburg of security agencies from thirty-nine countries. Officials at those talks agreed to create a permanent working group to coordinate efforts in the fight against international terrorism.
