Supreme Eurasian Economic Council expanded meeting. The President’s key points:
🔸Cooperation continues to strengthen within the EAEU, which is consistently asserting itself as one of the independent and self-sufficient centres of the emerging multipolar world.
🔸The five countries interact on the principles of mutual benefit and respect for each other's interests, focusing on ensuring sustainable economic growth. Russia’s chairmanship of the EAEU this year is aimed at these key goals.
🔸We will strive to achieve an equally high level of development within our association.
🔸 It is necessary to maintain real freedom of movement of goods, services, finances and human capital within the union, to ensure a synergy of all member states’ competitive advantages.
The President outlined objectives for further cooperation in the EAEU:
🔹Development of industrial cooperation, with more new joint ventures using the common Made in the EAEU trademark. At the same time, it is important that the Eurasian quality mark on goods is real proof that the products meet the highest standards.
🔹Strengthening technological sovereignty in the backbone sectors and achieving true technological self-sufficiency. Coordination of common priorities for technological transformation and innovative cooperation.
🔹 Building a single digital ecosystem, with the integration of national systems of digital public services and electronic governments.
🔹Ensuring a stable banking and payment infrastructure; development and harmonisation of the Eurasian financial market. This will create favourable conditions for capital to remain within the EAEU borders and for it to be invested in further strengthening the five economies.
🔹The establishment of a Eurasian rating agency that would provide balanced assessment tools to service the growing economic activity in the EAEU.
🔹 Introducing the concept of freedom of knowledge, to be exercised on the basis of general principles and standards of education, healthcare and public administration. This should contribute to the formation of a common cultural space.
🔹Promoting tourism development in the EAEU; creating a network of new tourist routes.
🔹Coordination of national educational and research programmes; harmonisation of requirements for professions; development of common educational and professional standards.
🔹Strengthening, development and modernisation of supranational institutions, primarily the Eurasian Economic Commission, which must quickly and effectively respond to changes taking place in the world.
🔹Further work to establish free trade zones with interested countries using the existing EAEU international payment infrastructure in national currencies.
💬 FM Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the 11th International Meeting of High Representatives for Security Issues (May 24, 2023)
Key talking points:
🔹US is intentionally seeking to escalate tension around Taiwan as part of its so-called Indo-Pacific strategies. Washington has been drawing its satellites, not only those in Europe, but also in the Far East into its destructive plots.
🔹 During the NATO summit in Madrid, the West proclaimed the principle of indivisible security in the Euro-Atlantic and Indo-Pacific regions, deciding to deal a fatal blow to the #ASEAN-centric security architecture in that part of the world.
🔹Instead of effectively cooperating for the benefit of all, the Anglo-Saxons have been deploying NATO’s military infrastructure in the region, established AUKUS and other variable-geometry military and political alliances in an attempt to draw several Southeast Asian countries into these incendiary games. All this cannot but cause serious concern.
🔹Some truly democratic interstate organisations are likely to provide crucial support in this work, organisations promoting a constructive, creative, and forward-looking agenda, and based on consensus rather than on the bloc discipline of the rod. Intensifying versatile ties between multilateral associations in Greater Eurasia, including the CSTO, the EAEU, CIS, SCO, #ASEAN, and CCAS, is highly relevant as well.

🎙 Video address of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to the participants of the 11th International meeting of high representatives in charge of security issues.
💬 Over years, your regular communication and exchange of experience and assessments have proved their importance and helped resolve key issues of ensuring global and regional security and strategic stability.
Your agenda today is also quite packed and important. First, you will discuss the international situation at hand and its prospects, analyse major modern threats, including international terrorism, extremism, arms and drug trafficking, transnational crime and illegal migration and, of course, food and cyber security matters.
❗️ Clearly, the international situation can be described in terms of mounting instability. Different regions see old hotbeds of tension expand and new ones emerge, the negative burden of conflicts is piling up, and people in many countries are experiencing the dramatic aftermath of the foreign-engineered coups.
This state of affairs directly stems from the desire of individual states and associations to preserve their dominance and impose their rules as they continue to act in complete disregard of other countries’ sovereignty, national interests and traditions.
🤝 We highly appreciate the fact that Russia has many partners in different regions and on different continents and the historically strong, friendly, and trust-based ties with the countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America and we will work to fortify them in every way we can.
I am sure that acting together we will build a more just multipolar world, and the exceptionalism-driven ideology, as well as the neo-colonial system that made it possible to exploit the resources of the whole world, will inevitably become a thing of the past.
I hope you will have a constructive and productive meeting, and outline new forms and areas of practical cooperation for the good of our countries and peoples in the interests of peace and stability on the planet

Q&A
❓The 42nd ASEAN Summit and Related Meetings in Labuan Bajo
💬We congratulate #ASEAN and Indonesia 🇮🇩 on the successful completion of the 42nd ASEAN Summit and Related Meetings in Labuan Bajo. The outcome documents cover a broad range of issues. The ASEAN’s efforts in advancing regional payment connectivity and promoting local currency transaction can be of particular practical interest.
❓Ukrainian crisis in the Chairman’s Statement of the 42nd ASEAN Summit
💬We noticed that in the Chairman’s statement of the Summit in Labuan Bajo ASEAN expressed its commitment to mitigate the impact of the situation that continues to affect negatively the region. Disruption of supply chains, rise in prices and concerns about food and energy security are direct results of the illegal unilateral Western “sanctions”. States that impose such measures should be responsible for their consequences for the developing countries in different parts of the world. It would be quite legitimate to raise the issue of the negative implications of the “sanctions” before their authors.
❓Situation in Myanmar
💬The role of the international community should consist in facilitating resolution of the current crisis without interference in the internal affairs of Myanmar while abstaining from threatening and imposing unilateral sanctions. Russia supports the ASEAN’s efforts on the basis of the Five-Point Consensus.

Key talking points:
🌐 More & more states are taking a course towards strengthening national sovereignty, pursuing an independent domestic & foreign policy, & adhering to their own development model.
📈 Trade in the EAEU is growing at a fairly steady pace, which is also an important indicator of the effectiveness of our joint work.
☝️ It is no secret that our Western opponents are trying to compel many of our partners to curtail beneficial cooperation with Russia through persuasion & with various promises & blackmail. In the process, they do not care one bit about the losses to be sustained by these states and their peoples.
🤝 We are pursuing a policy of reducing the share of unfriendly countries’ currencies in mutual transactions & planning to expand our activities with our partners around the world, including the EAEU, in order to complete the transition to national currencies.
🤝 The Eurasian Union is also working hard to expand friendly ties with other countries in the near abroad, Asia, India, the Middle East, Africa & Latin America, which represent the absolute majority of the world's population & drive global growth.
🤝 We highly appreciate the engagement of our EAEU partners in aligning cooperation. I am positive that our integration experience can be used to promote existing & create new interaction formats throughout Eurasia & the world at large.

❗️ On renewing the Black Sea Initiative
Read in full
• In connection with expiration of the 60-day deadline for renewing the Black Sea Initiative to export Ukrainian grain on May 18 and in response to requests primarily from our Turkish partners as a party to the agreement, we confirmed the renewal of the agreement for another two months through July 17 without any changes.
• Our principled assessments of the implementation of the interrelated Istanbul agreements have remain unchanged, and so far only the Black Sea Initiative has been implemented with the exception of ammonia exports.
• There’s no measurable progress under the Russia-UN Memorandum.
• There are obvious issues with the declared humanitarian component of the deal where Ukrainian grain is being exported through this sea corridor mostly to high and above-average income countries, including “well-stocked” European markets.
• Countries that need it most have received hardly anything, 722,000 tonnes (or 2.5 percent) of the total amount of 30 million tonnes that had been moved from Ukrainian ports over nine months.
• The export of Russian products, even donations of fertilisers to the neediest countries, continues to be blocked by various aspects of the illegal and unilateral sanctions.
• There is no progress either in resuming ammonia shipments mentioned in both Istanbul documents.
• Given the circumstances, we are compelled to issue a reminder that there are five systemically important issues that must be resolved as part of implementing the Russia-UN Memorandum and which have seen no progress whatsoever so far:
- reconnecting Rosselkhozbank to the SWIFT system
- supplying spare parts
- unblocking transport logistics and insurance
- reestablishing the Togliatti-Odessa ammonia pipeline
- unfreezing the Russian companies’ assets
• There can be no talk of expanding the Black Sea Initiative in principle without these requirements first being met. The agreement will be terminated after July 17.
🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s video message to the participants in the 7th Young Diplomats Forum of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation countries (Moscow, May 18, 2023)
💬 It is a great privilege for me to greet the participants in the 7th Young Diplomats Forum of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation countries. This year, it is being held as part of Russia − Islamic World: Kazanforum 2023.
🇷🇺 Russia has a tradition of promoting friendly ties with the majority of Muslim countries. We share a commitment to seeking guidance in our interstate cooperation from the principles of equality, mutually respecting our interests and seeking to balance them.
🔹 Russian diplomacy prioritises the promotion of interfaith and intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding, as well as the consolidation of our efforts to stand up for the traditional spiritual and moral values shared by all world religions, and also combatting Islamophobia, including within the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and the #OSCE.
🌐 New global centres in Eurasia, the Asia-Pacific Region, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America have achieved impressive results in various areas by focusing on their independence, state sovereignty, and their unique cultural and civilisational identities, all while acting based on their core national interests and conducting an independent foreign policy.
🔹 Russia has been consistent in its belief that confrontation leads international relations into a dead-end. We need to avoid confrontation, unreasonable and extremely dangerous as it is, between the global centres of power.
❗️People aspire to reach a new, well-considered balance of interests. It is essential that instead of rule by force, we equip the emerging world order with legal norms and regulations based on the UN Charter.

🎙🇷🇺Press release on the briefing of Ambassador of the Russian Federation to ASEAN H.E. Mr. Evgeny Zagaynov on ASEAN-Russia Cooperation (17 May 2023, Jakarta)
Key talking points:
🔹For Russia, fostering relations with #ASEAN is a strategic goal. It is reflected in the new Concept of the Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation. Our country fully supports ASEAN centrality in the region. It is the backbone of the system of peace and security in the Asia-Pacific.
🔹Values of ASEAN have traditionally included its unity and independence. This is what makes the ASEAN model attractive. We hope that ASEAN countries will be able to maintain that stance amidst current turbulence.
🔹Indonesia 🇮🇩 was at the origins of ASEAN and was one of the major driving forces of its development for more than 5 decades. To be in Indonesia during its Chairmanship in ASEAN is like being in “the epicentrum of the epicentrum”. Indonesia’s political and economic weight, its vast diplomatic experience coupled with the well-known hospitality largely contribute to its highly dynamic Chairmanship.
🔹This year marks the 5th Anniversary of the Strategic Partnership between ASEAN and Russia which covers a wide range of areas. At the 19th ASEAN-Russia Senior Officials’ Meeting (#ARSOM) held in Siem Reap in April both sides approached in the most constructive way their multifaceted interaction.
🤝Together with ASEAN we develop security, economic, energy and high-tech cooperation, people-to-people contacts, youth interaction, tourism and cultural ties, etc. A few examples:
Security. ASEAN and Russia have several unique mechanism in this area. Later this month Russia will host the 3rd ASEAN-Russia Consultations of the High Representatives for Security Issues. Since 2021 we annually hold Dialogue on ICT Security-related issues.
Science and Technology. The ASEAN-Russia Year of Scientific and Technical Cooperation 2022 embraced more than 50 initiatives in a wide range of areas such as nuclear energy, medicine, digital transformation, biotechnology. The 1st ASEAN-Russia Ministerial Meeting on Science, Technology and Innovation in February marked the successful completion of the Year.
Professional trainings. In 2022 almost 200 law-enforcement experts from all ASEAN countries took part in specialized trainings on counter-terrorism and anti-drug trafficking. More than 70 epidemiologists from ASEAN Member States participated in seminars and trainings organized by the relevant Russian agency – Rospotrebnadzor.
Education. This year the MGIMO University in Moscow launched its brand-new Master Program: “Political Economy of the ASEAN-Russia Strategic Partnership”. The University covers both the cost of the course itself and the transportation.
Youth. Russia is keen to develop contacts with the youth of ASEAN countries. Five ASEAN-Russia youth summits were organized so far.
Energy. This August Russia will organize the International Education Program for ASEAN Specialists in energy “Changing energy landscape: The New Energy Routes or Energy Landscape towards Net Zero” at the St. Petersburg State Economic University.
🔹Our ties are not limited to intergovernmental relations. Russian private sector shows growing interest to Southeast Asia. Russia-ASEAN Business Council is very active in promoting B2B contacts with their counterparts from ASEAN Member States.

On May 10-11, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Vershinin attended a high-level four-party meeting (Russia, Türkiye, Ukraine plus the UN) in Istanbul as a member of the Russian interdepartmental delegation.
The parties focused on the implementation of the package of agreements signed in Istanbul on July 22, 2022. They laid emphasis on the Black Sea Initiative on the export of Ukrainian grain, which expires on May 18. The parties conducted a detailed exchange of views on the current problems in the work of the Joint Coordination Centre (JCC) and the proposals by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on unblocking the Togliatti–Odessa Ammonia Pipeline.
⚠️ Russian delegates confirmed that the exports of ammonia were supposed to begin simultaneously with the export of Ukrainian grain under both Istanbul agreements and without any preliminary conditions. Emphasising the interlinked character of the package agreements, the Russian participants noted the absence of progress in implementing the Russia-UN Memorandum on normalising domestic agricultural exports.
They pointed to five systemic problems (bank payments, transport logistics and insurance, parts supplies, unblocking “frozen” assets and the ammonia pipeline). These obstacles continue preventing Russian agricultural exports from reaching global markets.
❗️ Russian delegates noted that commercial exports of Ukrainian grain (70 percent of which is fodder corn and feeder grain) mostly to the advanced countries are not of primary importance for ensuring global food security and reducing the threat of famine. To reach these goals, it is more important to normalise exports of Russian fertilisers and grain (70 percent of which is wheat), which are being complicated by Western unilateral blocking sanctions.

🎙Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s news conference on European security issues, Moscow, December 1, 2022 (excerpt):
💬 The West is acting to erode ASEAN, a comprehensive cooperation platform with such formats as the ASEAN Regional Forum, East Asia Summit and ASEAN Defence Ministers' Meeting-Plus, which have been generally recognised as backbone mechanisms of cooperation in the fields of security, the economy and other areas. They are doing their best to undermine these platforms. Security issues have been removed from the ASEAN agenda. The United States is trying to involve half of the ASEAN nations in its plans, and the other half are keeping away because they are aware of the risks involved.
❗️Washington is taking obviously destructive measures against the comprehensive mechanisms created in Europe and Asia Pacific to address security issues based on equality and a balance of interests.
