BAKU, November 20. /TASS/. Russia’s Federal Security Service has created a database on foreign terrorists, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at Azerbaijan’s Diplomatic Academy on Monday.

According to Lavrov, Moscow and Baku actively cooperate in anti-terrorist projects in the framework of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
