Post #4002

📰Article by Anatoly Borovik, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to the Kingdom of Cambodia, published by Fresh News(February 10, 2025) Key points: 🔴Today, Russian diplomacy stands as a continuation of its rich history, but it has adapted to the shifting tides of international affairs. 🔴Our predecessors have played a key role in shaping the post-war world order, striving at all costs to secure lasting peace in order to avert the horrors of war that humanity had gone through. The foundation of the United Nations, which also celebrates its 80th anniversary this year, was a testament to the power of diplomacy in building a more just and equitable system of international relations. 🔴Regrettably, today many Western politicians have forgotten history lessons and are once again trying to use the language of force, imposing a so-called “rules-based order”.
