❗️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.

🎙 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks at a joint meeting of the Collegiums of the Foreign Ministries of Russia and Belarus (Moscow, November 25, 2025)
💬 Today, we are looking back at the outgoing year, which marked the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, a sacred holiday for Belarusians and Russians.
I would like to express my gratitude to our Belarusian allies for their consistently close cooperation and support in all our joint undertakings. Guided by the Programme of Coordinated Actions in Foreign Policy of the States Parties to the Treaty on the Establishment of the Union State for 2024-2026, we have closely cooperated within the framework of our common Eurasian associations, such as (in addition to the Union State) the #CSTO, the #EAEU, the #CIS, and the #SCO, as well as within #BRICS, the #UN, and the #OSCE.
In all of these organisations, we act in solidarity on virtually all international issues. We are implementing important joint initiatives, including those aimed at strengthening security and stability in Eurasia. Diplomatic support of large-scale bilateral cooperation and integration processes within the Union State has remained our overriding priority.
Undoubtedly, the Union State is a format that sets the tone for interaction across several areas. In accordance with the resolution adopted by the collegiums and instructions issued by the respective heads of state and government, we primarily focused on promoting cooperation within common integration entities, deepening ties among them, and expanding cooperation with the countries from the Global South. Likewise, we focused on coordinating our efforts on international legal issues, among them countering the West’s sanctions aggression, and other areas.
<...>
We have facilitated the dialogue between the EAEU and the SCO and BRICS, and the coordination of 2026-2030 EEC-ASEAN Cooperation Programme. We have started looking into the possibility of expanding CIS contacts with African organisations and established cooperation between the CSTO Secretariat and the AU Counter Terrorism Centre.
As I mentioned earlier, we have jointly promoted on all international venues the initiative advanced by the President of the Republic of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, on the development of the Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century which aligns with the initiative put forward by President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to form a new architecture of equal and indivisible security in Eurasia. <...>
We have made significant efforts to expand international support for countering the practice of illegal unilateral sanctions. On the initiative of the Group of Friends in Defence of the UN Charter, of which Russia and Belarus are members and play an important role, the UN General Assembly adopted, in June, a resolution establishing the International Day against Unilateral Coercive Measures. <...>
The agenda of today’s meeting is quite extensive. We will begin by discussing issues related to the joint use of humanitarian policy tools, the promotion of traditional values, and the preservation of historical memory. We will then consider matters related to cooperation with friendly states and their associations, as well as our approaches to building relations with the countries whose governments pursue an openly unfriendly policy towards us. This will also include our relations with the organisations that deviate from their own founding principles, do not adhere to impartiality and equal distance, but instead seek to take predominantly pro-Western political positions.
We will place special emphasis on sharing experience in foreign policy information support. Following the meeting, we plan to sign a Resolution of the collegiums and a Plan for inter-ministerial consultations for 2026.
#RussiaBelarus
🌐Today is International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace.
On December 12, 2018, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution A/RES/73/127 on marking this day. The document notes that the International Day aims to promote UN values and to reaffirm the trust of the world’s nations in the goals and principles of the UN Charter.
🇷🇺🇺🇳 Russia is invariably committed to the policy of upholding multilateralism and the UN’s leading role in global affairs and is actively involved in efforts to overhaul the UN and to adapt it to new international realities.
This is particularly topical today when a narrow group of states advancing the rules-based order concept exerts unprecedented pressure on the UN and other multilateral institutions.
✍️ Under the Russian Foreign Policy Concept, approved on March 31, 2023, Russia intends to prioritise efforts to reinstate the UN’s role as a central coordination mechanism in coordinating the interests of UN member states.
At the same time, one of the main aims of national foreign policy is to strengthen the potential of multilateral regional associations and integration organisations involving Russia. For example, this refers to measures to enhance the international role of #BRICS, the #SCO, the #CIS, the #EAEU, the #CSTO, #RIC and other interstate associations and international organisations, as well as mechanisms with significant Russian involvement.
⏰ Today, on April 24, FM Sergey Lavrov will take part in one of the key events of Russia’s presidency of the UN Security Council, specifically, the open debate on "Effective multilateralism through the defence of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations." The debate will be streamed live on all our feeds.
#UNCharterIsOurRules#Multilateralism
🇺🇳#UNCharterIsOurRules
🌐 International Day of Multilateralism and Diplomacy for Peace was observed on April 24. It was established by UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/73/127 on December 12, 2018, in order to promote the UN values and to reaffirm the belief of our peoples in the purposes and principles enshrined in its Charter:
“The International Day constitutes a means to promote the values of the United Nations and to reaffirm the faith of our peoples in the purposes and principles enshrined in its Charter, to reaffirm the importance and relevance of multilateralism and international law and to advance the common goal of lasting and sustained peace through diplomacy.”
Russia has consistently supported multilateralism and the leading role of the UN in world affairs, actively participating in efforts to reform and adapt the UN to new international realities.
This is especially relevant today, when the UN and other multilateral institutions have come under unprecedented pressure from a small group of states, and the standing of the World Organisation has been noticeably down, including due to the Secretariat refusing to adhere to the equidistance principle. The collective West keeps attempting to subordinate the Organisation to its narrow self-interests and to impose the controversial concept of a rules-based world order to replace international law.
💬 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov(excerpt from a speech on February 11, 2026):
At the UN platform, in conjunction with our like-minded partners in the Group of Friends in Defence of the UN Charter, we are working to ensure that the principles enshrined in the UN Charter are observed in their full scope, entirety, and interconnection, rather than selectively, as the West prefers.
The UN is going through rough times and is bearing the brunt of profound differences between the world’s leading powers. Nevertheless, the Organisation’s role as a platform for aligning states’ interests is undeniable.
According to the Foreign Policy Concept, Russia prioritises restoring the UN’s role as the central coordinating mechanism for aligning the interests of member states.
Our country contributes to the formation of a more representative, democratic, fair, and multipolar world order with the central coordinating role of the UN, based on respect for cultural diversity, mutually beneficial and equal cooperation among countries.
📄 Excerpt from the Concept:
“The mechanism for shaping universal international legal standards should be based on the free will of sovereign states, and the UN should remain the main venue for progressive development and codification of international law.”
Our shared responsibility is to preserve the UN as a model of multilateralism and coordination in global politics. The path to this end lies through joint work, rejection of claims to any form of exclusivity, and respect for the sovereign equality of states.
At the same time, an important task includes strengthening the potential of multilateral regional associations and integration entities involving Russia, including enhancing the international role of #BRICS, #SCO, #CIS, #EAEU, #CSTO, #RIC, and other interstate associations and international organisations.
🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the meeting with delegation of the Permanent Committee of the International Conference of Asian Political Parties (Perm, May 29, 2025)
💬 Sergey Lavrov: Dear colleagues, dear friends,
This is the year when the International Conference of Asian Political Parties commemorates its 25th anniversary. And because of their reputation and their authority, they are a platform for exchanging views and experience in the context of party-to-party cooperation. Cooperation at this level is one of our priorities. It's a very useful addition to the so-called classical diplomacy and that contributes a lot to promoting mutual trust, mutual understanding between peoples.
The creation of the conference is a signal, a very clear signal to the entire world. And very timely response to reconsider the place of the Asian countries in international and global developments.
We assess very positively the increase of the political work of your conference. And we see with pleasure the sustainable process of expanding your influence in the continental architecture, in the architecture of regional organizations, some of which are experiencing erosion of their influence, if not degradation, since they abandoned practically all of the key principles of the UN Charter.
I have in mind such organizations on our Eurasian continent as the European Union, which became more Euro-Atlantic than Eurasian following NATO. <...>
In the last 10-15 years, all these principles including equal and indivisible security, including the statement that no one, be it the country or organization, should prepare to dominate in Europe, all this was abandoned, violated.
🌐 We need Eurasia of course. And by the way, Eurasia is the biggest, the richest continent. The continent which, unlike Africa and Latin America, is home of several world civilizations with thousands and thousands of years of history. <...>
#Eurasia is the only continent which doesn't have any universal continental structure, like African Union in Africa, like CELAC in Latin America. We have quite a lot, many integrational movements, organizations which address security issues, like Shanghai Cooperation Organization, #ASEAN, Collective Security Treaty Organization (#CSTO), Commonwealth of Independent States (#CIS) and the Gulf Cooperation Council (#GCC), the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (#SAARC) and there is no umbrella.
We are very much in favor of promoting party-to-party dialogue. Our ruling party, United Russia, in cooperation with other parliamentary parties and their fractions is promoting very actively this kind of cooperation. And I will highlight the initiative of United Russia of last year, when they convened a meeting of various parties to consider methods of fighting the new forms of colonialism and neo-colonialism. <...> A movement created on the basis of the conference, which is called "Freedom of Nations".
☝️ The inadmissibility of neo-colonial forms of exploitation is one of the agenda items of the Group of Friends of the UN Charter. Last year, we initiated, through this group, the resolution of the UN Committee on Decolonization. The draft resolution supported by this committee was accepted by the UN General Assembly. <..> A clear majority supported it.
The idea is to announce the 14th of December, the day of the adoption of The Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples of 1960, as a date of fighting the new forms of neo-colonialism.
Сolonial exploitation was very blunt. Slaves, you know, digging the resources and leaving the countries in very poor condition. If you take the economic system in the world, countries, especially in Africa, mostly produce, they provide natural resources to the western countries
We would like to promote the movement to resolve this injustice. Without fighting any country, we never want to isolate any country from cooperation, but cooperation must be based on equal footing, just principles.
🤝 We express our readiness to cooperate with your conference.
📺Video-urimi i Ministrit të Punëve të Jashtme të Rusisë, Sergej Lavrov, me rastin e Ditës së Punonjësit Diplomatik (10 shkurt 2026)
💬 Të dashur miq,
Sot shënojmë festën tonë profesionale – Ditën e Punonjësit Diplomatik.
Dëshiroj të përgëzoj të gjithë diplomatët rusë – edhe ata që punojnë në Aparatin Qendror dhe në përfaqësitë territoriale të Ministrisë, edhe ata që kryejnë detyrën e tyre jashtë vendit.
Historia e diplomacisë ruse numëron më shumë se një shekull, ajo përsërit fazat e forcimit të shtetësisë ruse. Epokat ndryshojnë, por vlerat tona shpirtërore dhe morale mbeten të palëkundshme.
Kjo është, para së gjithash, dashuria e sinqertë, vepruese dhe e vetëmohuar për Atdheun dhe përkushtimi i palëkundur ndaj idealeve të së vërtetës dhe drejtësisë.
Me të drejtë krenohemi me arritjet e paraardhësve tanë të shquar. Nderojmë guximin e punonjësve të Komisariatit Popullor të Punëve të Jashtme, të cilët në vitet e vështira të Luftës së Madhe Patriotike u ngritën në mbrojtje të Atdheut me armë në dorë.
Mbi këtë vepër të pavdekshme rreshtohen sot punonjësit e Ministrisë së Punëve të Jashtme dhe të institucioneve tona vartëse, të cilët marrin pjesë në operacionin special ushtarak.
As diplomatët e tjerë nuk mbeten prapa: ata ndihmojnë ushtarët në front dhe familjet e tyre, mbështesin njerëzit e prekur nga krimet e neonazistëve ukrainas.
Sot, në një tjetër pikë kthese historike, diplomacia jonë vazhdon të bëjë gjithçka që është në dorën e saj për të siguruar kushte të jashtme të sigurta dhe të favorshme për zhvillimin e qëndrueshëm të brendshëm të Rusisë dhe për përmirësimin e cilësisë së jetës së qytetarëve.
Kursi ynë politik i jashtëm, i qëndrueshëm dhe i balancuar, në masë të madhe përcakton vektorin e transformimeve botërore, duke kontribuuar në krijimin e një rendi botëror të ri, shumëpolar.
Jemi të interesuar për vendosjen e mëtejshme të një bashkëpunimi ndërkombëtar të ndershëm dhe të barabartë, mbi parimet e mirëkuptimit, besimit dhe fqinjësisë së mirë.
Me iniciativën e Presidentit V.V. Putin, ne po punojmë për krijimin e një arkitekture të sigurisë së barabartë dhe të pandashme dhe bashkëpunimi të gjerë praktik në hapësirën euroaziatike. Në këtë kontekst, i kushtojmë rëndësi të veçantë lidhjes dhe zbatimit të marrëveshjeve dypalëshe. Midis tyre janë traktatet tona për garancitë e sigurisë me Bjellorusinë dhe partneriteti gjithëpërfshirës strategjik me Republikën Popullore Demokratike të Koresë dhe Republikën Islamike të Iranit.
Vazhdojmë të zhvillojmë marrëdhënie të shumëanshme me shtetet e Shumicës Botërore. Midis tyre janë Kina, India dhe bashkëmendimtarë të tjerë, partnerë strategjikë dhe aleatë, veçanërisht në kuadër të#CSTO, #EAES, #CIS, #SCO, #BRICS.
Gjithashtu, në qendër të vëmendjes sonë mbetet kundërshtimi ndaj çdo praktike neokoloniale: nga masat shtrënguese të njëanshme deri te ndërhyrjet ushtarake.
Në këtë kontekst, shprehim solidaritetin tonë me popujt e Venezuelës dhe Kubës. Jemi të bindur se vetëm ata mund të përcaktojnë fatin e tyre.
☝️ Udhëheqja e vendit dhe shoqëria ruse e vlerësojnë me përpikëri punën tonë. Nga ne kërkohet disiplinë, përkushtim, qasje e ndërgjegjshme dhe krijuese ndaj punës.
Besoj që ju do të vazhdoni të punoni me nder për të mirën e Atdheut, duke dhënë kontributin tuaj në zgjidhjen e detyrave të mëdha të politikës së jashtme të përcaktuara nga kreu i shtetit.
Në këtë ditë, ne shprehim mirënjohjen tonë të veçantë për veteranët e dashur, të cilët me shembullin e tyre na mësuan bazat e diplomacisë. Shumë prej tyre, brenda mundësive që kanë, mbeten në radhët tona diplomatike.
Dhe, sigurisht, dëshiroj të falënderoj veçanërisht të gjithë familjarët dhe të afërmit e punonjësve tanë. Mbështetja juaj e pakushtëzuar na jep forcë dhe na vendos në humor pune. Ajo është shumë e rëndësishme për ata që kryejnë shërbimin diplomatik larg Atdheut.
Edhe një herë ju përgëzoj të gjithëve për festën. Ju uroj shëndet të mirë, mirëqenie dhe suksese të reja për të mirën e Atdheut.

⚡️Article by Mikael Agasandyan, Director of the First CIS Countries Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, published in Eurasian Dialogue(December 22, 2025)

✍️A prosperous and dynamic business sector is undoubtedly one of the key system-forming drivers across a wide range of areas.
Creating the most favourable conditions for entrepreneurship, including in the external dimension, is a strategic priority. Supporting Russian participants in foreign economic activity through diplomatic and international-legal instruments has therefore become one of the core tasks of Russia's Foreign Ministry.
In practical terms, efforts are focused on the consistent advancement of economic integration processes, improving the legal and regulatory framework, strengthening interstate trade ties and technological sovereignty, and facilitating dialogue between regions and the business community.
The principal driving force behind dynamic progress on the economic track is joint work with partners within regional multilateral structures involving Russia – the #EAEU, the #CIS and, to a certain extent, taking into account its specific mandate, the CSTO.
#EAEU
The flagship project in this regard is the Eurasian Economic Union – not only as an economic organization, but also as the most deeply integrated interstate association with supranational regulation.
The #EAEU’s external trade activities open up broad opportunities for business, primarily through the conclusion of free trade agreements with third countries.
The Eurasian Development Bank (#EDB) has a substantial set of instruments to support and promote entrepreneurship. The EDB provides financing and/or technical assistance for projects that generate or strengthen an integration effect within the region.
Particular attention should also be paid to the EAEU Business Council. Its work is aimed at establishing direct links between entrepreneurs, fostering a favourable business environment, promoting trade-economic, industrial and investment cooperation, and supporting the EAEU’s external trade agenda.
#CIS
The economic dimension is likewise a key pillar of cooperation within the CIS. An extensive legal framework has been established, an integral component of which is the Free Trade Area Agreement of October 18, 2011, ensuring the functioning of a full-fledged free trade regime for goods.
According to the CIS Interstate Statistical Committee, the foreign trade turnover of CIS countries reached USD 1.1 trillion in 2024.
Special mention should be made of the statement on the inadmissibility of the use of unilateral restrictive measures in international relations, approved at the meeting of the CIS Council of Foreign Ministers on October 7, 2024. <…>
#CSTO
Within the CSTO framework, member states attach particular importance to military-economic and industrial cooperation, which is directly linked to the development of national defence-industrial complexes and the corresponding logistics and supply systems of the armed forces of the Organization’s member states.
In the spirit of alliance and commitment to shared objectives, and with due regard for the national interests of each member state, painstaking work continues to further integrate and consolidate the efforts and competencies of defence-sector enterprises and organizations across the CSTO area, as well as to create the necessary conditions for implementing joint projects in priority fields.
☝️ In conclusion, despite the progress achieved, considerable reserves for further economic development within our common space remain untapped.
The experience and resources of our regional structures are especially in high demand in the context of implementing the initiative of Russia's President Vladimir Putin to form a Greater Eurasian Partnership (#GEP).
#Eurasia4You
🇷🇺🇧🇾 On June 9-10, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrovheld talks with Foreign Minister of the Republic of Belarus Maxim Ryzhenkov, who was on his first official visit in Moscow.
The talks were held in a traditionally trust-based and truly comradely atmosphere. The Ministers discussed a wide range of key issues of Russia-Belarus strategic partnership and alliance. They focused on diplomatic support for the integration process in the Union State. They voiced coinciding or quite similar positions, while considering current international and regional issues, including the resolution of the Ukraine crisis.
The Sides exchanged opinions regarding their future collaboration to forge a Greater Eurasian Partnership and new Eurasian security architecture. Following the meeting, Sergey Lavrov and Maxim Ryzhenkov signed a joint address to the foreign ministers of Eurasian states on drafting the Charter of Eurasian Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century. The Ministers reviewed, in great detail, issues of future integration within the framework of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (#CSTO), the Eurasian Economic Union (#EEU), the Commonwealth of Independent States (#CIS) and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (#SCO), as well as mutual collaboration at the United Nations Organisation and the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (#OSCE).
Addressing a joint news conference, the Foreign Ministers of Russia and Belarus discussed, in great detail, the agreements reached by them.
#RussiaBelarus#UnionState
🇷🇺🇧🇾 Today, Belarus, a state linked to Russia by centuries of fraternal friendship and bonds of mutual assistance, is marking Independence Day.
#OnThisDay in 1944, Minsk was liberated from Nazi German invaders and occupants as a result of well-coordinated Red Army operations. Fighting shoulder to shoulder, our nations made a decisive contribution to the Victory over Nazism.
Today, Russian-Belarusian relations are those of strategic partnership and alliance. Together, our countries continue to overcome serious difficulties and defend their interests on the international scene. They collaborate closely in the field of military and military-technical cooperation and in ensuring collective security.
Moscow and Minsk jointly streamline various institutions of the Union State and promote integration projects in the Eurasian region. Our countries voice common or similar positions on many international issues and cooperate closely in the #CSTO, the #EAEU, the #CIS, the #UN, the #OSCE and other international and regional organisations.
🤝 We congratulate the fraternal people of Belarus on the national holiday. We wish them well-being and prosperity.

⚡️Nga përgjigjet e Ministrit të Punëve të Jashtme të Federatës Ruse, S.V.Lavrov për median (Jerevan, 21 maj 2025)
Pika kryesore:
• Ne ndajmë vlerësimin themelor se sistemi evropian i sigurisë, që ka ekzistuar deri më tani, ka dëshmuar joefektivitetin e tij, dhe e ka bërë këtë për një kohë të gjatë dhe në mënyrë të përsëritur. Kreshta kryesore e strukturave aktuale të sigurisë ishin strukturat euroatlantike. Nëse marrim një strukturë gjithëpërfshirëse, atëherë kjo është #OSBE, dhe nëse marrim një strukturë që vendosi, pavarësisht krijimit të Organizatës, të bëjë gjithçka për të ruajtur pozicionin e saj dominues, pa transferuar funksionet e përcaktimit dhe zbatimit të parimeve përkatëse te OSBE-së, por duke i “mbajtur ato për vete”, atëherë kjo është Aleanca e Atlantikut të Veriut.
• Në këtë drejtim, lind pyetja: cili sistemi sigurie do të jetë më i drejtë? Ne besojmë se sistemi i sigurisë më i drejtë do të jetë ai që nuk imponohet nga lart nga asnjë strukturë, por vjen “nga jeta”. Për shembull, në kontinentin euroaziatik ekzistojnë një numër bashkimesh integrimi: #EAEU dhe #CIS, #CSTO, #ASEAN dhe Këshilli i Bashkëpunimit të Shteteve Arabe të Gjirit Persik. Ekzistojnë gjithashtu bashkime subrajonale në Azinë Jugore. Shumë nga këto struktura kanë lidhur tashmë memorandume bashkëpunimi. Dhe kështu, natyrshëm, nga poshtë po formohet një lloj Partneriteti i Madh Euroaziatik, siç e përshkroi Presidenti i Rusisë, V.V.Putin.

⚡️Из ответов на вопросы СМИ Министра иностранных дел Российской Федерации С.В.Лаврова (Ереван, 21 мая 2025 года)
Основные тезисы:
• Разделяем принципиальную оценку того, что система европейской безопасности, которая до сих пор существовала, доказала свою неэффективность, причём делала это давно и неоднократно. Основным хребтом действующих структур в сфере безопасности являлись евроатлантические конструкции. Если брать инклюзивную структуру, то это #ОБСЕ, а если брать структуру, которая решила, несмотря на создание Организации, делать все для того, чтобы сохранить свои доминирующие позиции, не передавая функции определения и выполнения соответствующих принципов в ОБСЕ, а «держа их у себя», – то это Североатлантический альянс.
• В этой связи встает вопрос о том, какая система безопасности будет более справедливой? Считаем, что более справедливой будет система безопасности, не навязанная сверху какой-то одной структурой, а идущая «от жизни». Например, существует целый ряд интеграционных объединений на евразийском континенте: и #ЕАЭС и #СНГ, и #ОДКБ, и #АСЕАН, и Совет сотрудничества арабских государств Персидского залива. Есть в Южной Азии и субрегиональные объединения. Между многими из этих структур уже заключены меморандумы о сотрудничестве. И тем самым, естественным путем, снизу формируется своего рода Большое Евразийское партнерство (#БЕП), как его охарактеризовал Президент России В.В.Путин.

⚡️ Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’sstatement and answers to questions at the Government Hour hearings during a plenary session of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation (February 11, 2026):
Key takeaways:
• The world is undergoing a long-term transition to a multipolar order, marked by growing competition between the Western minority and the World Majority.
• Western countries continue to pursue neo-colonial policies, double standards, and attempts to preserve dominance, including through pressure, destabilisation, and military actions.
• Russia views current global upheavals as part of a profound and lasting shift in international relations, not a temporary phase.
