This is confusing. Why is Russia listed as a participating state in both organizations?
OK, Fair Question as Posed.
First, the OSCE:
Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe | OSCE, the world's largest regional security-oriented intergovernmental organization with observer status at the United Nations.
The Russian Federation is a member of this and the United Nations, which recognizes this group.
Second, the CSCE: CSCE | Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe
Self Description as follows: Commission on security and cooperation in Europe U. S. Helsinki Commission Mission We are a US government commission that promotes human rights, military security, and economic cooperation in 57 countries in Europe, Eurasia, and North America.
They are a US Government Commission, NOT an Organization, and they promote ONLY US Government Policy IN 57 Nations.
CSCE is NOT an ORGANIZATION OF 57 Nations.
CSCE uses the words "Commission" and "IN" to mislead readers to believe they are an Organization of 57 Member Nations.
There are no policy or views existing in CSCE that are not US Government policy or views.
In OSCE there are 57 separate viewpoints and policies advocated, one for each of the 57 Member Nations by those Member Nations.
