The authors present the second part of the article dedicated to investigation of controversial legal moments in relation to the classification of any circumstances to force majeure. Taking into account the different approaches to the interpretation of concepts and features of force majeure in the legislation of CIS participant-states it is principially important to determine the criteria for the establishment of such circumstances and the conditions for the exemption from liability in case of violation (non-fulfillment) of obligations due to their occurrence during the consideration of economic (business) disputes by the courts. On the basis of the results of the study and the scientific public opinions, the conclusion is based on the possibility (and the need) to develop common approaches within the CIS in the classification of certain circumstances as force majeure; the most appropriate form for this can be the interstate informative act.
