minister of affairs, or gala rob. by the way, by the minute when you to maintain a, to see depth, global domination, trying to stop objective pros, all creation of the multi polar world order into receive these goals as you know. but i get is they use the training regime actively or the rational so they have been raising 8 years as the greek had for me were using wages of a lesson, try to threaten the rational we resume pickup for the security of the russian federation. they have rates this regime to nobody to try to destroy the average thing russia and they receives a policy of suppressing ski everything russian. all the russians in their country. ukrainian officials are hearing that openly, literally, yesterday, a person called the lock from what i understand. he's one of the trustees of the

president and he explains the conceptual principles. he said that when you are, ukraine will seize crimea, they will eliminate everything russian. there could only be ukrainian culture, there are a global cultures a way here. and he called the people from the eastern parts, former eastern region, so green, he called them fox, that might be eliminated or what's good behind bars schedule. these are the goals along the ukraine. if they chose, the regime are pursuing one, they speak about their plan, all of our $10.00 items. and with these land, they want to take back the way they put a don bass and try me. and for that, the one to receive the moment revisions from the russian federation to hold the russian federation responsible under that tribunal lonely than they will be merciful enough to sign. collect raymond,

we talked in detail about this situation and within these context gaz the rational negation. we said that based on the analysis of the situation based on the analysis of those aggressive unlawful, illegitimate actions that the wesley is using. and there are global aggression that we developed and you foreign policy concept of the russian federation that was approved by president late march. and it contains conclusions about how we will continue to develop our country. how we cooperate with the countries that are still independent in their policies, who think about their national interest, the interest of their own people, 1st of all and they preserve their right to independently press you their goals and within this concept in our foreign policy concept, we pay special attention to the development of continuing to large scale

corporation in the, your asian continent. and we have a special place to such as ation says, the commonwealth of independent states c, s t l, your asian economic unit in shanghai corporation, organization needs of them. and among them, a number of other organizations seen. these are region, for example, asi and we have work in context and we have plans to continue to develop corporation. we consider these rosa says, very promising, at least they are underpinned by the nature of the needs of the countries of the vast duration continent. but most of where we are all located, which city was in there, can grant me, but that give us a lot of competitive badges and creating the new foundations new drowns on the weeds. the global economy will be functioning, 1st of all,

and the global economy will be affecting the political processes and politics. we firmly stand for respecting the un charter and all. but could we get them completely. we are not selecting algebra parts from the document as our western colleagues do a lot whenever they need to deal with course, when you make constable independent for example, they side the right of the people's for self determination. when they want to deny sites, right, from some other regions in the world, they speak about rhetorical integrity. as an absolute beside it, there's an absolute law that has no alternative. would you leave? if nothing else i can make out some sort of court did. so we share it on our estimates and our partners, they share these estimates. we drafted a number of documents including for the consultations among the foreign ministers

of the countries that will reflect all the processes that we are witnessing now and globally. and it will also, that you can see it are the objectives, the goals that our country is having disregard matching. and so they will show a special significance to our joint work, to neutralize and threats to the security of our country is terrorists threats. and the threats while you're created as a result of the nila 3 biological activities in our region that is traded by the united states and their alliance. and that, that is creating very dangerous precedence really from the point of view of biological security. and this code is a direct threat to the health of the people to the nature to the environment was up in the sung. see, despite the western sanctions that they have been posed against the russian federation against valor is as you know,

despite the threats to all our partners on behalf of the united states and the european union, who did not want them to cooperate with the russian federation. and the republic of salaries that he spent on there and the fear of the sell code that secondary sanctions and other punishments, the trade within the c as is growing class here, it has increased by more than 6 per cent and its volume exceeded $100000000000.00 all the plans, all the projects that we are developing after the head of the governance. and that is going to take place on june, 8th and san sheet if you will, of focus on promising to valley important public areas for every state. and there is no doubt that an appetite for further expands not they cannot develop and will be given by the rushing agreement that is being drafted now on free trade of services among the c,

s count trays. and it also will be good for the consideration for all the hands of the governance that will convenient charging my bill, which cultural and humanitarian corporation was also see it. but you're only discussed at our meeting. everyone support their further plans to complete the charter of the international organization on the rational language. that was the initiative legwork by president of catholic stand last year at this summit it was approved as a concept. and now, like i said, we are drafting its charter and every one comes from this sumption just like president to kind of suggested least we're going elation will be initiated by the commonwealth when abandoned states. and it will be open for everyone without any exceptions. for any countries from any continent, they said that they said that at the wider meeting of the ministers, we approved the project suggested by the russian side,

namely the initiative to hold the sporting event for the children with disabilities. these forums you plan to make it your annual group, but hopefully it will find subordinate among the or people of our account trace. and the decision was made to start the when they start to make an athletic capital of this year as a means and in 2024, armenian gimme. you will be boarding capitol of the c i. as we have also distributed rose before the capitalist of this year, next year it is going to be a task and in 2025. give a lee in our media, ski and 2026 lea. you start a fire in armenia, and we also have a cultural capitals of the c s. and the next year, the cultural capital with the beautiful city of summer can see what the, where you should know. we have convened to date and another important decision was

made today. i mean, senior easterners the, the decision that the university of friendship possibly paul is named after patrice bloomberg. it will help to train and the journalists, i think it's a matter of interest for you and there will be courses also for the russian was a nationalist, what's ultimately so you can also apply for a position within this curtis as well. so these are the outcomes, i think we had a very useful conversation. we've made some important decisions now and ready to take your questions about the the, the, the love that you have. so we did not disguise this matter because it has nothing,

nothing to do with the commonwealth 3 countries. russia was bancwest and capital also on the level of france. we made very good progress and discussing this large scale project that will for sure, allow us to strengthen energy security. and everyone will profit from because they are against suppliers over at those who are interested in receiving these gaps. when parties agree on the conditions of transit on the prize. if everyone is happy with everything vantage when we in situation for everyone, the last you do me a budget to assume it, which is the committee of storage for all the participants. so the meetings on the

janice and the plane here and we'll share in general physician. so one of the meetings was again his name conference. and before that we'll natalie are we're a form it with you for countries, russia, attackers to china and iraq. we got to put you down for them as a preparation for out until it was wider in orland with the number of matters. interests that were later on the agenda of the neighboring countries may give you the basically everyone unanimously and share their opinion that we continue to develop context with the taliban government. and why did see preaching decisions that are awakened because the terrorists radically growing is increasing yield on them, which preserve the authority in the country. it preserves change the control over the country. even though this control is being con, remind you to the fact that terry's not only friend sizes,

but from other organizations are becoming more active. i should in the speech, raising their hats, but it, but it will go through, can you and should we believe that some of our western calendar has something to do with them becoming more active. secondly, the taliban is their reality. reality and that not everyone. and again, it's easy to share and 1st of all, from the point of view of non inclusive, strongly nature of the government and the country because only one political, the forest talent. and we're basically represent when the government is a taliban savage that their government includes. it goes back to tactics and other groups. but these representatives to help me out make her stand our government from the political point of view, there is a part of the taliban bug listed. and when taliban sees power and a dentist in the united states and the colleagues landline them are city,

lad was a plant. so we planned to church social media base floating by adding, we are a political forward to seeing their authority as a assume they legation voluntarily to just like they have legation to mind. was rock traffic in my terrorism. something is being done in this regard. but as for establishment of inclusive government, not only from ethnic want of you, but also from political the point of view. but there is still a lot to be done in this regard. as all of us, basically we are voted unanimously, calling healing to tell them to resolve all this matters. but they have been on the agenda, it's worth more than a year now. i'm coming and the united nations are national energy is please watching days and it will be an important step not only will go or the

factor recognition or the needs of the taliban government. but also for that you are a nation of the you can extend governmental tens, resolve this matter is a sheets prompt. her fashion of the regulation also resolve the issue with the rights for women and girls, their voting rights rights revocation. so on the other my little go with when you might think is important to you,

minute should leader to leader secretes it is in our mutual interest to promote water lateral meetings. we don't get the level of the foreign ministers. yes. now we are working on a date and are on a location on the parameter as you so sure. the discussion malware positions is very simple from everybody. i didn't think that we should set any kind of precondition disregard all of us, all the participants of this group. we are making thought out here in the 3 countries from the ass and the foreman on a lot of occasions that we reaffirm the respect for that. and he and we were the sovereignty of the syrian era republic. we can dams in the country. everyone understands what we were saying and we always appealed before the it's the stuff which settlement with a consideration of interest of the entire study got those hearing people of all the

serious people like my think these are enough criteria to start with some concrete discussion of all the discussions should be aimed at achieving what should reconciliation will be in the sheer and in turkey union. so janet was an important traders that all the situation in the region that we are always happy to encourage you to promote that. and the range of the integrity are not 100 down by anyone from these countries. i think it's the reason for them to rein john, like the law, the foreign ministries and the defense ministries have already met. and the special

services representatives have already met with human. yup. so, you know, we have not discussed the matter separately, but during our conversation we shared our estimates on the things that you've mentioned and we all share that opinion that among s corps study today should up a me my got the fuel to use and the outrages behavior by the western representatives and some clinton, connecticut, who are in charge of the sanctions. so it is crossing all the lines, hold the borders and it is seen as the lack of respect for the independence

or the sovereignty of the countries. the bad such pressure, such threats are exerted against sidney. like us said, we prepare separate decisions from developing the trade and economic relations among the countries they will be discussed in such a journey at the heads of the governments meetings among them. there is a agreement on the free trade of services. it's a very strong impetus for our corporation and economy. and among them there will be draft documents interesting enough, or she could be to enhance our share to technology sovereignty from all they'll trade just things that the west is doing. and that they are undermining older positions because the countries all over the world, the understand to what expand,

to what extent inadequate such behavior and how they are abusing the united states administration. and there is satellites from the west, how the abuse their position in the world. i think it was today that the president of brazil lula while in beijing who spoke at the press conference and he called on leave and abandoning dollar and relying more on the national currency has seen the global trade. i think these was a trend that will continue. the americans are basically our mission. so shooting their own backs by doing these because they were in charge of the global financial system using the dominating role of the dollar. and now everyone started playing. it's not happening fast. yet, but i'm sure that these trans with the more and more obvious which the path of sanctions, we have always sat, that is the path to nowhere near the western countries. the one to let you use

their position that they were so proud of that they were always used to say that labs use the principles that we have found in the globalization principles. now they are violating these brain samples to benefit from the political point of view to try to preserve our destination very had germany. the world with any means possible. the serious limitations from the serious countries are drawing 30 conclusions and these conclusions are a simple you for the one to stop being dependent on the west and to develop mechanisms that will allow normal countries. chris back there is sovereignty, respect bearing dependent respect or partners. so the choose principles that will allow them to develop their economies and to leap in accordance with the principles that they have that they want.

the mission was very quickly. and yet, which of you can have in sweet sweet at the sound of because they're going to tell you again you, can you go to the muslim night, lead? not saying that these are the western people, and that was an outrage. an outrage is that they demand to eliminate, that was the next. we didn't get to the bitterness of follow their will then that they are undermining independence. and the sovereignty of the countries they are visiting with

levels what are your estimates? so the possible you can, the mortars were too distracted to use up its resources. we sausage. at times we saw the attempts to attract the georgian authorities to the so called a 2nd. from the current georgian authorities are showing responsible approaches approach that is raising 1st of all on the national interest of their own people. and they refuse to subs. absolutely any broaches like that before you come, you know, bubble that on the phone. and we heard also about such a counsel open up the 2nd, the 3rd number or whatever you call it front line and waive the west street. such attempts can be seen by the up of how the west treated the protests in the nova against when they protested against the western policies of the government,

called the presidents interest. that ignored thing. threats of mo, dolling calling me in the west, treated as it almost was an attempt to really but just upset who did time. and in georgia, there were protest about a clear, transparent and wrapped long in accordance with which, if you receive funds from abroad. and if you're in the holding politics, you should inform everyone which is where do you take funding from the case of georgia. these presidents were support issue and the print tasks were encouraged to start by another color revelation on color and religion in the country. and so his leader was sure map west is using national transport. if we look at another part of our region, paula is concentrating very serious. military contention for the border with valor

is dobbins of 1000 selves on the soldiers with the information we got. i don't know if it's true, but i know that a lot of forces haven't concentrated at the borders, and the polish authorities also adjusted to use their territory for deploying the american nuclear weapons. so all these factors, you know, you, you come when taken together does not allow us to relax it, which we have to say concentrated. we'd see all these and we can see all these in our planning both in military planning and people are matic planning and political planning. and all other respects the, the day that we're all parties to do all that need to be in order to every day.

how can i'm sure you have heard not only what you grow did know, but you have heard statements repeatedly made by major leadership, american leadership, french, the this of german leadership, british leadership. they say one and the same thing. it does not time for negotiations. your grade must be on the battlefield. russia must suffer a strategic defeat on the battlefield. and only after that, conditions for the negotiations would be ripe. i am also sure that being a journalist, you know that in september last few years, 11th sky must
