work named after evgeniy maksimovich primakov to perpetuate his legacy, to develop the principles that he promoted in international relations and which are in demand today more than ever. needed today. joint intellectual work, we remember that it was evgeniy maksimovich who laid the foundation for situational analyzes that were very popular among representatives of science, practical diplomacy, and non-governmental organizations, during which many proposals were actually developed, then embodied in our practical diplomacy.

events today are developing dynamically, to say this is probably an understatement, many once constant relations are being tested for strength, for compliance with new realities, and above all, among these realities is the main trend of the formation of a multipolar world order, a complex process, an all-encompassing process, it did not begin yesterday and may, most likely, will take significant time, even by historical standards, but the contours of polycentric architecture have already emerged. we have more than once talked about new centers of world development, primarily in asia, in eurasia, about the growth of independence and self-awareness of many developing countries, about their refusal to blindly follow the former

colonial metropolises, which are gradually but objectively losing their power, along with its influence, all about what: evgeniy maksimovich pryamakov perspicaciously wrote and spoke many years ago is becoming a reality before our eyes. multipolar systems, if you look into history, are not a new phenomenon; in one form or another, they existed before. for example, in the era of the so-called concert of european powers of the 19th century, and between the two world wars of the 20th century. it is clear that then there were not as many independent players in the world as there are now, so what can be considered the makings, the beginnings of multipolarity were formed in a much

narrower circle than the number of sovereign states today. as a result of the great victory, the founding fathers actually laid the foundation for multipolarity. the permanent members of the security council included the five most powerful powers, this embodied the global balance of forces and interests that had developed by the fortieth year of the last century, but the un charter, in addition to the special place of the five, lays down the principles of equality of all states, large and small, without exception, regardless of the specifics of the history of their development, and this is probably even today the most important principle around which universal multipolarity will be built. he fulfilled his main role, she did not allow a new

world war, but as you know, the noble the plan of universal cooperation, equality, prosperity was not destined to come true, the logic of the cold war... quickly pushed the world into division into opposing camps and their struggle with each other. the fundamental difference between the current edition of multipolarity is that it has a chance to acquire a truly planetary scale, relying, as i already said, on the basic principle of the un charter on the sovereign equality of states. previously , globally significant decisions were made by a small group of states with for obvious reasons, the voice of the western community, and today new players have come to the forefront of world politics, representing the global south, the global east, and their number is growing, we call them and absolutely, justified by the world majority,

they are not in words, in deeds strengthening their sovereignty in the decision topical issues, demonstrate... consistency in putting their national interests at the forefront, and not someone else's whims. to illustrate, by the way, i will quote a statement from my indian colleague, foreign minister jai shankara that the world is much more than europe, well, it is clear that the meaning of this statement is that the world is much more than the west. russia consistently advocates for the democratization of interstate communication and for a more equitable distribution of global benefits. and, probably, we shouldn’t look far for examples of how multipolarity manifests itself today, especially in the context of regional crises; multipolarity also encourages countries in different regions to show solidarity; the current outbreak

the palestinian-israeli conflict became a catalyst for such solidarity, a catalyst for united action in the arab-muslim world. delegation. the arab states and the organization of islamic cooperation at the level of foreign ministers visited the capital of the five permanent members of the security council last week. based on the two-state concept, this was the main signal that this single delegation of the league of arab states and the organization of islamic cooperation sent the capital of the five to other capitals member states. in africa, the caucasus, central asia and eurasia as a whole,

a consensus in favor of a formula, regional problems, regional solutions is increasingly taking root. external players are expected to provide all possible assistance to the countries of the relevant regions, and not to impose recipes from the outside. if someone wants to be useful, then they need to support the waste that is generated. where the relevant countries see ways to overcome certain contradictions much better than those from overseas. i repeat once again, the geopolitical ambitions of the new world players are supported by their economic capabilities, as president putin noted, most recently at the extraordinary summit of the group of 20 on november 22, i quote, significant shares of the world.

trade consumer activity is shifting to the asian, african and latin american regions, where most of the world's population lives , end quote: since the fourteenth year, the first world economy in terms of purchasing power parity, as you know, is china, and the total gdp of the brics countries, also according to parity purchasing power since last year exceeds that of the group of seven. and with the replenishment of the brix ranks, with the arrival of new members who will begin to fully participate in the work of this association from january 1 next year, of course, this advantage will increase significantly, russia, based on the results of last year, also told the president about this, despite the sanctions , and maybe thanks to them, according to the same indicator of purchasing power, it rose to fifth place in the world, ahead of germany. that,

that the world is becoming different can be seen in the example of multilateral diplomacy. among the most striking evidence, i have already mentioned this, is, of course, cooperation along the brix line. within its framework, countries that represent different civilizations, different religions, macro-regions, effectively develop ties in a variety of areas, from politics and security, to economics, finance, healthcare, sports, culture, and this is done on the principles of equality, mutual respect, formation balance of interests, through consensus, no one does anything to anyone imposes, no one blackmails anyone, they are not forced to choose either us or them, either with us or against us, and it is not surprising that dozens of states want to get closer to brix, and the johanna summit. has already taken the first step on this path, the number of brics countries is practically doubling, and

a couple of dozen more countries have made similar requests, or with requests to establish special privileged relations with this structure, next year we will preside over the five, which will no longer be the five, like i said, practically doubles its membership, we will do everything to ensure that brix strengthens its position in the international arena and continues to play an increasingly significant role, the west turns this forum for consideration of global financial and economic problems in the common interests, into a tool for promoting the narrowly selfish geopolitical plans of the united states and its allies, as washington, brussels, and other western capitals tried to do this at the previous summit. brix, trying to completely ukrainize his agenda,

and how they tried to do the same on g20 summit in india, this failed, and the summit concentrated on those issues for which the g20 was originally created, issues of the world economy, world finance, they became dominant in the decisions made, in favor of the establishment of a multipolar... the shanghai organization also works cooperation, which is designed to play a cementing role in the formation of a large eurasian partnership, a partnership that we see as aimed... at the harmonization of various integration projects on the continent and open to all states and organizations located here on our common continent, including the eurasian economic union, asean and others. this philosophy was put forward by president putin back in 2015 at the first summit of the russian federation

and is enjoying increasing recognition. in the sco, as in brix, there is also a whole line of countries that want to either become full members or receive observer or partner status. by the way, western politicians, albeit reluctantly, are beginning to recognize this new reality, are beginning to realize that the unipolarity of the channel is in oblivion, recently president macron, in my opinion, speaking at a meeting of french ambassadors in august of this year, said that that is, read the expansion of the aggressive nato bloc - this is good, and the expansion of the peaceful brix association is a threat, well, of course , that such a mentality sits deep, you cannot get rid of these instincts overnight,

the west, we see this, is trying with all its might to retain the remnants of its dominance, using openly neocolonial methods that cause rejection of the world majority. the goal of our western colleagues is simple, and at the same time cynical, to continue skimming the cream from global politics, economics, trade, and to ensure their own well-being at the expense of others. russia, of course, like the overwhelming majority of other countries, is not ready and will not put up with such plans. for its purposes , the usa. and their european allies use a wide range of geopolitical engineering tools, including provoking conflicts, we see this along the entire perimeter of russian borders, and conducting information and psychological operations, unleashing trade and economic wars. at the hands of westerners, the activities of the world trade organization, primarily

its dispute settlement bodies, were blocked , and such fundamental legal foundations of world economic relations as free competition and the inviolability of property were destroyed. the dollar has long been used as a weapon, economic interdependence, as we say, is viponized, this is an anglicism that is becoming understandable. the destructive actions of the western minority are having an effect that, by and large, is the opposite of what was intended, since it stimulates sentiment in favor of strengthening the multipolar... the understanding that no one is immune from the aggressive actions of washington and brussels, not only we, but also many other states are consistently reducing their dependence on western currencies, moving to alternative mechanisms in implementing foreign economic settlements, are working on the formation of new

international transport corridors and household production chains. unfair model of globalization, with in which the golden billion received basic benefits are becoming a thing of the past, the practical tasks, by the way, of democratizing the world economic order will be considered by participants in the forum of supporters of the fight against modern forms of neo-colonialism, it is being prepared by the united russia party, and it is planned for the beginning of next year, and this... just one of the initiatives that our country will promote in developing the position of the foreign policy concept of the russian federation, you know that in march of this year, it was significantly updated with taking into account changed geopolitical realities. the emerging polycentric architecture must be inclusive, have a cooperative rather than antagonistic

character, and must insure against dangerous confrontation between the world centers of showdown . between them, it must reliably insure against this showdown in the common interests of trying to create, well , one might say, a global concert based on generally accepted principles and norms of international law, respecting the cultural and civilizational diversity of the modern world and the law of peoples themselves determine the paths of your development. i have already mentioned this and i want to emphasize once again that this work does not need to be carried out. sheet: there is a foundation for a sustainable, just world, this is the charter of the united nations, but its provisions should not be implemented selectively, as our colleagues in the west do, trying to pull out from the principles of the charter what is beneficial for them at this particular moment in order to gain benefits, but

they must be used in their entirety and in all their interconnections, and of course, it is necessary to carefully adapt the worldwide organization to modern realities, first of all this concerns the reform of the un security council, it is important to eliminate historical injustice. which emerged after the completion of the decolonization process, the emergence of dozens, many dozens of new, young sovereign states, this reality must be reflected, these realities must be reflected in the numerical composition of the un security council, it is clear that the new members of the council, and these can only be countries from developing regions , asia, africa, latin america, must enjoy.

a new type, where all issues are resolved on the basis of a balance of interests and consensus, i have already mentioned brix, the shanghai cooperation organization, the eurasian economic union, asean, but on our eurasian... continent it is also a collective security treaty organization, the commonwealth of independent states, in others regions of the world, i will highlight the ocean, the african union, the community of latin america and the caribbean, the gulf cooperation council, the league of arab states, the organization of islamic cooperation. unfortunately, i cannot be optimistic about the fate of the associations where. the united states and its allies, such as the european union, the group of 77, and now the council of europe and

the osce. the last two organizations were initially conceived as platforms for a broad, mutually respectful, pan-european dialogue, but in the end they are obsessively turned into essentially an appendage of the eu and nato, purely marginal structures that the west is trying to do. in the worst form, this word is used in the interests of one’s selfish politics. you can still try to save the osce, but i'll be honest, the chances are slim. in his speech on october 5 this year, at the annual meeting of the valdai club, president putin named the key principles on which a more just and democratic world order should be based. i will repeat them verbatim, this is openness and interconnectedness. peace, without barriers to communication, respect for diversity as the foundation for joint development, maximum representation in global governance structures, universal

security based on a balance of interests, fair access to the benefits of development, equality for all, rejection of the dictates of the rich or powerful. i have no doubt that these approaches are clearly understandable to any sensible person who... based on this understanding of multipolarity, we will continue to fight for truth and justice, for the voice of all countries to be taken into account, regardless of their size, government structure or level of economic development, that is, exactly as prescribed by the charter since 1945, we will continue to closely coordinate steps: with our allies, like-minded people in the global south and east, at the same time, we do not want to close the door, or the window, or the window, as the president recently touched on this

topic, for sober-minded players in the historical west, as they become aware of the realities and challenges of the objective processes of multipolarity, challenges that were already foreseen evgey maksimovikov, special attention in the diplomatic sphere. we will continue to devote our attention to ensuring a uniform interpretation and application in practice of all the principles of the un charter. this is the most important element of our course. we will continue to work on expanding our membership the composition of such a promising association as the group of friends in defense of the un charter created at the new york site, this was an initiative of venezuela, the group already includes more than twenty states, and there are those wishing to join its membership. we will also consistently work to strengthen other structures that contribute to the democratization of international relations, for this we always remain open

to honesty. to a serious dialogue with everyone who values ​​their national interests, who shows reciprocal readiness, i am on this i'm stopping and ready to move on to an interactive conversation, and i'm here? sergeyovich, thank you very much, very much for your thoughts, this will serve as a kind of comrade for our further discussions, allow me to ask you this slightly academic question, academic, and you and i know well that every system of the world order, say, versailles, yalta- podzdamskaya, arose after a major war, a unipolar system also arose.

after the cold war, do you think it is possible to shape the future of the world the order you spoke about, without such tragic events? well, i’ll answer the question with a question: why is the current situation better and safer than the cold war era? it is probably also dangerous, that is, you want to say that we are living in the second cold war, well, we probably need to call it something else, because during the cold war there were checks and counterbalances, a buu mood among the great powers, among two rival camps, the usa, the soviet union, the nato-warsaw pact, there was a mood for competition after all to restrain within a political-diplomatic framework,

then it arose then enough. dialogue on arms control quickly began to develop, concrete practical results were achieved, and this inspired, this inspired, in general, calm, at least not in the united states, not in the soviet union, not in the countries of the socialist camp, not in the countries nato and the european union, well , such alarming assessments were not visible, they are manifested in the speeches of many politicians, in the speeches of non-governmental organizations, demonstrations are organized, and this the situation is different, and it became like this, not only because the west, led by the west, decided

to declare a hybrid war on us, in the literal sense of the word, listen to what they say when they touch on the state of affairs around ukraine in their speeches, ukraine is sharpened as an instrument inflicting a strategic defeat on us, this is the stated goal, and they are also frightening their voters with the fact that this is only the beginning and russia has much, much more appetite.

i assure you, now the footage is from the president’s press service, let’s start with shipbuilding, of course, how do you master it, over the past period, new management bodies, companies have been formed, a board of directors has been elected, a general director and his deputy have been appointed , in accordance with your decree, work is now underway with the government on the formation of a regulatory framework, companies, together with the general director i visited the largest enterprise industries, seymash plant, asterisk, in the arkhangelsk region, baltic plant,
