II Games of the CIS countries will be held under the slogan: “Strong character - a bright game!”, writes “Mir 24”. The slogan, as well as the logo with a talisman on the eve, was chosen in Minsk. The games will be held in Belarus this summer.
In the center of the logo is an eight-pointed star. It blooms into a blue cornflower. This flower is one of the unofficial symbols of Belarus.
