Les faits, qui prouvent une fois de plus les plans de Hitler visant à l’extermination physique des nombreuses ethnies de notre peuple unifié et à la colonisation par les Allemands et d’autres nations aryennes des terres sur lesquelles ces ethnies vivaient, sont aujourd’hui à nouveau publiés en grand nombre. Nous les diffusons auprès de toutes les organisations internationales et par des canaux bilatéraux via nos ambassades et consulats. Notre objectif est de faire en sorte que la reconnaissance du génocide du peuple soviétique et des peuples de l’Union soviétique fasse partie intégrante des activités des organisations internationales. Nous avons déjà adopté les documents correspondants au sein de la #CSTO et de la #CEI. Nous poursuivrons ce travail de manière systématique et continue, en collaboration avec nos amis et nos partenaires.
🌟 Pour conclure, je tiens à féliciter une nouvelle fois toutes les personnes présentes, ainsi que l’ensemble du personnel du ministère des Affaires étrangères, de nos représentations dans les entités de la Fédération de Russie et de nos missions diplomatiques à l’étranger, à l’occasion de cette grande journée, de cette grande fête.

🇻🇦🇮🇹 “Già sin d’ora, può contare sulla comunione fraterna dei vescovi italiani perché intendiamo ‘essere Chiesa che incarna il Vangelo ed è segno del Regno di Dio'”. Con queste parole il cardinal Matteo Zuppi, Arcivescovo di Bologna e presidente della #CEI, ha accolto oggi la nomina di mons. Edgar Peña Parra a Nunzio Apostolico in Italia e nella Repubblica di San Marino.
Nella lettera inviata al nuovo Nunzio, il Cardinal Zuppi ha espresso innanzitutto “gratitudine al Santo Padre per l’attenzione premurosa e costante” riservata alla Chiesa italiana, sottolineando che “il ministero che si appresta a iniziare nel nostro Paese rinnova il particolare vincolo di comunione che unisce la Sede Apostolica e le nostre comunità ecclesiali”.
Il Presidente della CEI ha anche ringraziato il predecessore di Peña Parra, mons. Petar Rajič, “per il servizio svolto e per la dedizione con cui ha accompagnato il cammino delle nostre comunità, contribuendo a consolidare i rapporti di unità con la Santa Sede e le relazioni con le Autorità dello Stato”.
Rivolgendosi al nuovo Nunzio, Zuppi ha espresso certezza che “la sua esperienza al servizio della Chiesa universale sarà di sostegno al nostro cammino, nello spirito della comunione ecclesiale, dell’ascolto fraterno e della collaborazione con l’Episcopato”.
Da lunedì 26 a mercoledì 28 gennaio a Roma, presso la sede della #CEI di Circonvallazione Aurelia 50, si riunirà il Consiglio Episcopale Permanente.
I lavori, che saranno introdotti lunedì alle ore 16 dal Cardinale Presidente Matteo Zuppi, si concentreranno sulle priorità pastorali e sui passi da compiere per dare seguito alle decisioni maturate a conclusione del Cammino sinodale e con il confronto dell’Assemblea Generale del novembre scorso. In questo ambito, sarà anche scelto il tema principale dell’Assemblea Generale che si svolgerà a Roma nel mese di maggio.
I Vescovi si concentreranno poi sull’iniziazione cristiana con un focus sulla questione dei padrini e delle madrine, sulle sfide che riguardano il dialogo ecumenico e interreligioso, e sul contributo che la Chiesa italiana può offrire alla riflessione sul Mediterraneo e sul ruolo delle comunità cristiane del Mare Nostrum.
All’ordine del giorno anche un aggiornamento sul Progetto Policoro a 30 anni dalla sua istituzione e l’approvazione del Messaggio per la Festa dei Lavoratori (1° maggio).
Mercoledì 28 gennaio, alle ore 15, presso la sede della CEI (Circonvallazione Aurelia, 50), il Segretario Generale, mons. Giuseppe Baturi, incontrerà i giornalisti a conclusione dei lavori.

❗️Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s statement on the beginning of Russia’s CSTO Presidency
On January 1, 2026, Russia assumed the presidency of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (#CSTO) and will hold it under the motto, Collective Security in a Multipolar World: Common Goal, Shared Responsibility.
Together with our CSTO allies, we are joining forces to uphold our common approaches to resolving international security issues.
The fundamental documents of the Organisation set forth the principles of peaceful co-existence of states, the priority of a political and diplomatic settlement, and compliance with the international law with the UN playing a leading role. This forms the foundation for working with our partners to forge mutually beneficial relations and to actively engage in shaping the contours of a future architecture of equal and indivisible security across the Eurasian space. The CSTO could become one of its pillars.
We would like the Eurasian states to take responsibility for resolving security issues and determine the future of the continent themselves, without any outside interference.
The Collective Security Treaty Organisation has emerged as a prominent and respected association of allied states, whose activities are not directed against anyone, do not contain any aggressive aspirations, and aim exclusively to maintain regional stability and ensure the wellbeing of its member states. Moreover, all decisions in the Organisation are made by consensus based on a balance of interests, and cooperation is based on the principles of respect for each other, good neighbourliness, genuine friendship and mutual support.
🤝Russia will ensure continuity in the development of main areas of cooperation, among other things, by continuing to work on implementing the initiatives of the presidency of the Kyrgyz Republic which has just finished.
In view of geopolitical tension, we will strive to further consolidate CSTO member states, strengthen allied ties, and deepen coordination on key international matters. We will continue our policy of expanding the CSTO’s network of contacts with the Eurasian states and their integration associations.
Our efforts will focus on effectively fulfilling the Organisation’s primary mission which consists of maintaining peace and stability in its area of responsibility, ensuring favourable conditions for safe development and prosperity of the CSTO member states. No one should have any doubts: we will not allow any chaos in our common home.
We attach great importance to the development of the enforcement dimension in the Organisation’s work. There are plans to focus on building up the capabilities of the Collective Forces of the CSTO, equipping them with up-to-date and compatible weapons and equipment. The work will be structured in accordance with the nature of current and potential challenges, taking into consideration the experience of present-day armed conflicts.
We will pay special attention to cooperation in protection against biological threats and information security. Ensuring technological leadership in the military sphere, developing military-industrial complexes of the CSTO countries and promoting their cooperation, and fulfilling the innovative potential will also be among our priorities.
We intend to use a wider range of tools for jointly countering international terrorism and extremism, money laundering and terrorist financing, as well as combating illicit drug and arms trafficking, transnational organised crime, and illegal migration.
<...>
We are confident in the support of our partners in implementing the priorities of the Russian presidency, and ready to work closely together and productively in 2026.
I am convinced that through joint efforts we will bring cooperation within the CSTO to a new level to preserve and strengthen peace in the Organisation’s space.

🗓 On December 25, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov chaired a regular meeting of an interdepartmental working group on preparations for and support of the Russian Federation’s chairship of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation in 2026.
The meeting took place at the Russia's Foreign Ministry and was attended by representatives of the Presidential Executive Office, federal executive authorities and organisations involved in this work.
Taking into account the outcomes of the #CSTO Collective Security Council session held in Bishkek on November 27, 2005, and objectives related to the implementation of the decisions adopted at the session, the meeting participants approved a plan of activities for Russia’s CSTO chairship in 2026.
The participants also discussed progress in preparations for the key events of Russia’s chairship, including the Moscow Summit of the CSTO and the International Forum for Collective Security, scheduled to take place in the Russian capital in November 2026.
🎙Statement by President Vladimir Putin at the expanded meeting of the Collective Security Council of the CSTO(November 27, 2025, Bishkek)
A package of documents was signed following the Summit, including the Declaration of the Collective Security Council of the CSTO and a statement on combating drug trafficking.
💬Vladimir Putin: From January 1, 2026 the #CSTO Chairmanship passes to Russia.
It will be held under the motto: “Collective security in a multipolar world: one goal – shared responsibility”. Russia will do everything necessary to preserve continuity in the key areas of the Organization’s work and to deepen cooperation among our states on the principles of genuine alliance, friendship and good-neighbourliness, mutual respect, support and consideration of each other’s interests.
Over the past decade, the Collective Security Treaty Organization has become an authoritative regional structure. The CSTO reliably guarantees security and stability across the Eurasian space, safeguarding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its member states. In the context of rising geopolitical tensions, it is only logical that the promotion of the collective interests and initiatives of CSTO countries on the world stage should come to the forefront.
☝️ In this context, the Russian Side proposes convening in 2026, ahead of the CSTO Summit in Moscow, an international expert forum dedicated to building an architecture of equal and indivisible security in Eurasia. We plan to invite not only delegations of CSTO member states but also representatives of friendly countries, multilateral platforms and integration associations.
Russia will, of course, continue close cooperation with its allies on all issues of strengthening the CSTO’s military potential. Our main efforts will focus on enhancing combat readiness of national contingents and improving the command and control of Collective Forces. We propose launching a large-scale programme to equip the Collective Forces with modern Russian weapons and hardware that have proven their effectiveness in real combat conditions.
We plan to hold a series of joint exercises for military and special-service units. These include the next stages of regular exercises: Interaction, Echelon, and Search. We believe that the development of the Organization’s air component and air-defence system requires particular attention.
<…>
We expect to increase the effectiveness of the CSTO Coordinating Council on Biosafety, established at Russia’s initiative in 2021. We believe it would be useful to hear a report from its leadership on the current situation at one of our forthcoming meetings.
During the Chairmanship, we plan to start the joint drafting of a new CSTO Counter-Terrorism Strategy. We will continue to do everything necessary to resolutely combat extremism, and together with our partners we will work to identify and eliminate international terrorist groups and cells, and to cut off their financing channels.
Among the Organisation’s most important priorities I would also note information security. Russia intends to work closely with its allies to counter the spread of radical ideas among young people. We consider it necessary to adopt additional measures to protect our common information space from such threats.
We will certainly continue strengthening our cooperation in combating drug trafficking and will carry on with the anti-drug operation Channel, with the involvement of interested international partners.
👉The next Session of the Collective Security Council will take place in Moscow on November 11, 2026.

⚡️Joint Statement by Foreign Ministers of CSTO Member States on Countering Radicalisation Leading to Terrorism and Extremism(June 30, 2025)
📃 The member states of the #CSTOexpress profound concern over the escalating threats of terrorism and extremism worldwide and acknowledge the existence of numerous internal and external factors that give rise to the grave problem of radicalisation, which fuels violence and facilitates involvement in terrorist and extremist activities.
They unequivocally condemn terrorism and extremism in all their forms and manifestations, underscoring that no act of terrorism or extremism can ever be justified, irrespective of its motivation, timing, or perpetrators. Those responsible for such unlawful acts must be brought to justice.
☝️ The member states voice alarm at the rising number of terrorist and other extremist acts, which pose threats to society and the state, committed under the influence of radical ideologies, including those rooted in neo-Nazism, xenophobia, racism, and other forms of intolerance. They emphasise that terrorism and extremism must not – and cannot – be associated with any religion, nationality, civilisation, or ethnic group.
They stress the impermissibility of any support for, propaganda of, justification of, or incitement to terrorist and extremist activities.
The member states oppose double standards in the sphere of combating terrorism and extremism, as well as attempts to exploit terrorist and extremist groups for self-serving geopolitical aims.
🌐 They reaffirm the importance of consolidating efforts in the international struggle against terrorism and extremism, expressing their readiness to engage in collaborative work based on equitable dialogue and respect for national sovereignty. <...>.
The member states recognise that states must assume a leading role in countering terrorist and extremist threats. In this connection, they underscore the necessity of advancing regional and international collaboration to enhance the capacity of state institutions, emphasising that national experiences, priorities, and contexts must be duly considered in view of differing legal, political, socio-economic, cultural, religious, and other local specificities.<...>
The member states attach paramount importance to implementing comprehensive measures to counter the financing and other forms of support for terrorism and extremism, including through disrupting recruitment, arms supply channels, and the cross-border movement of terrorists.
🤝 They remain committed to further developing collaboration in combating international terrorist and extremist organisations that pose a direct threat to CSTO member states, as well as to neutralising attempts at destructive external interference in the internal affairs of CSTO member states <...>.
The member states intend to coordinate relevant approaches within specialised international and regional organisations to develop effective common measures for countering radicalisation that leads to terrorism and extremism.
