русский term

очень близки нам

русский => английский Медицина Образование / Педагогика Medical training course
This has nothing to do with medicine, actually, it is from an invitation to a medical training course and is addressed to Russian and international participants:

"Особо хочу подчеркнуть - страны СНГ очень близки нам: у нас общие корни, одна история, похожие тенденции в состоянии здоровья населения..."

Discussion

Rachel Douglas Oct 31, 2013:
More context? Might help. Otherwise, how do we know the invitation is not written in fairly emotional terms, with this phrase meaning, "We care deeply about the CIS countries..." or "We have great concern for the CIS countries..."?

How about the (generally quite scarce) context, i.e. the continuation of the phrase: "у нас общие корни, одна история, похожие тенденции в состоянии здоровья населения". Not only emotions here.

we feel very close to CIS countries (this is ALL it says)

I tried not to invent effusive phrases that go beyond the text.
