🎙 Remarks by Head of the Russian delegation Deputy Foreign Minister Oleg Syromolotov at the 66th session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs
📍 Vienna, March 13, 2023
💬 The world is going through dramatic transformations in many areas. It is clearer than ever now that the expansion of global drug trafficking is a common threat and fighting it is our joint responsibility.
🤝 We welcome the determination of individual groups of countries and associations such as Central Asia and #ASEAN to create drug-free regions.
We note with satisfaction that in recent years the #SCO has significantly built up its drug-combating capacity and continues to build, in conjunction with the #CSTO, the #CIS and CARICC, a barrier on the northern route that is used for smuggling Afghan drugs to Europe.
⚠️ Unfortunately, not all states are willing to act responsibly when it comes to fighting drug abuse. For several years now, we have been witnessing a small group of Western countries acting as if they are entitled to not follow the corresponding conventions. Today, we are talking not only about legalising supposedly less harmful cannabis, but also about lifting bans on the use of dangerous substances such as methamphetamine and heroin.
Everyone can see the results of this thoughtless policy of permissiveness. It is no coincidence that these countries are faced with an opioid crisis involving an unprecedented number of fatalities.
Does this sound like concern for public health?

✍️ Interview with the Director of the Foreign Ministry’s Foreign Policy Planning Department Alexey Drobinin published in the journal “National Strategy Issues” of the Russian Institute for Strategic Studies, No 1, 2023 (13 March, 2023)
🌐 The main trend is that the structure of international relations is changing in the direction of greater multipolarity. The ability of one country or group of countries to dominate another is becoming a thing of the past. It is being replaced with a global configuration based on the balance of power and interests of the globally important decision-making centres.
🇷🇺 Russia is acting as a sovereign global centre. It is carrying out its historically established unique mission of maintaining the global balance of power & ensuring the conditions for humanity’s steady advance based on a unifying and constructive agenda.
🔹 A new balance has not yet been found. For the time being, we are seeing a gradual diffusion of political power, with stronger positions for different non-Western players that are capable of choosing their own path of development and may become independent centres of the emerging multipolarity in the future. Such states or their associations are striving for independence or “strategic autonomy,” if you will.
🔹 It is no secret that the collective West considers this global configuration disadvantageous. The countries on both sides of the Atlantic are afraid of potentially losing the opportunity to be a parasite on the rest of the world.
🔹 The forces that are opposing a modern Anglo-Saxon hegemonic paradigm for the global configuration are gaining strength in conditions of the dual containment of Russia & China. They are creating an infrastructure of interstate ties that are independent of Western policy and immune to its pressure.
🔹 Having mastered these cancel culture elements at the national level, the Americans and their allies tried to apply these very mechanisms to other countries, including Russia.

📄 President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin’s Article for People’s Daily Newspaper, «Russia and China: A Future-Bound Partnership» 🇷🇺🇨🇳
March 19, 2023
READ IN FULL (original on Kremlin.ru)
💬 I am glad to seize this opportunity to address the friendly Chinese people in one of the largest and most authoritative world media in advance of the state visit of President of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping to Russia. This landmark event reaffirms the special nature of the Russia-China partnership, which has always been built on mutual trust, respect for each other's sovereignty and interests.
We have high expectations for the upcoming talks. We have no doubt that they will give a new powerful impetus to our bilateral cooperation in its entirety. This is also a great opportunity for me to meet with my good old friend with whom we enjoy the warmest relationship. <...>
🤝 The firm friendship between Russia and China is consistently growing stronger for the benefit and in the interest of our countries and peoples. The progress made in the development of bilateral ties is impressive.
The Russia-China relations have reached the highest level in their history and are gaining even more strength; they surpass Cold War-time military-political alliances in their quality, with no one to constantly order and no one to constantly obey, without limitations or taboos.
We have reached an unprecedented level of trust in our political dialogue, our strategic cooperation has become truly comprehensive in nature and is standing on the brink of a new era. President Xi Jinping and I have met about 40 times and have always found time and opportunity to talk in a variety of official formats as well as at no‑tie events. <...>
Unlike some countries claiming hegemony and bringing discord to the global harmony, Russia and China are literally and figuratively building bridges. Last year our border regions were connected by two new bridge crossings over the Amur river, which has been a ”river of friendship“ since time immemorial. Amidst the ”waves and winds“ that sweep the planet, we closely cooperate in international affairs and effectively coordinate our foreign policy positions, counter common threats, and respond to current challenges, standing shoulder to shoulder as a ”rock amid a fast flowing stream.“
We actively promote democratic multilateral structures such as the #SCO and #BRICS, which become more and more authoritative and influential and attract new partners and friends. The work aimed at coordinating the development of the Eurasian Economic Union with the One Belt, One Road Initiative also goes in this vein.
❗️ Our countries, together with like-minded actors, have consistently advocated the shaping of a more just multipolar world order based on international law rather than certain ”rules“ serving the needs of the ”golden billion.“ Russia and China have consistently worked to create an equitable, open and inclusive regional and global security system that is not directed against third countries. In this regard, we note the constructive role of China's Global Security Initiative, which is in line with the Russian approaches in this area.
We can feel the geopolitical landscape in the outside world change dramatically. Sticking more stubbornly than ever to its obsolete dogmata and vanishing dominance, the ”Collective West“ is gambling on the fates of entire states and peoples. The US's policy of simultaneously deterring Russia and China, as well as all those who do not bend to the American dictation, is getting ever more fierce and aggressive.
The international security and cooperation architecture is being dismantled. Russia has been labelled an ”immediate threat“ and China a ”strategic competitor.“ <...>
🇷🇺🇨🇳 I am convinced that our friendship and partnership based on the strategic choice of the peoples of the two countries will further grow and gain strength for the well-being and prosperity of Russia and China.
This visit of the President of the PRC to Russia will undoubtedly contribute to that.

🇷🇺 🇨🇳 The Russian-Chinese relations are at the highest level in all our history, offering a model of a genuine comprehensive partnership and strategic cooperation.
• When discussing topical international and regional problems, the President and I affirmed that Russia and China’s views on them are identical or very close.
• Russia and China strongly oppose any state or bloc seeking to harm the legitimate interests of any other country in order to obtain military, political and economic advantages.
• Of course, we did not ignore developments around Ukraine. We believe that many of the provisions of the peace plan put forward by China are consonant with Russian approaches and can be taken as the basis for a peaceful settlement when the West and Kiev are ready for it. However, so far, we have not seen such readiness on their part.
❗️ It seems that the West really has decided to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian – no longer in words, but in deeds. But in this regard, I would like to note that if all this comes to pass, then Russia will have to respond accordingly. What I mean is that the collective West is already starting to use weapons with a nuclear component.
• We jointly work to create a more just and democratic multipolar world order.
• Of course, trade and economic cooperation remain a priority for us, considering that China has solidly established itself as the leading foreign trade partner for our country. Last year, trade increased by 30 percent to set a new record of $185 billion.
• As of the end of the first three quarters of 2022, the share of the ruble and yuan in mutual commercial transactions reached 65 percent and continues to grow.

🌾 The second 120-day validity period of the Black Sea Initiative on exporting Ukrainian food expired on March 18. With the lack of progress in implementing the Russia-UN Memorandum on normalising Russian agricultural exports, Moscow decided to shorten the next renewal period to 60 days until May 18.
This position was officially communicated to the Turkish and Ukrainian sides of the Black Sea Initiative, as well as the UN officials. No formal objections followed.
Further decisions on extending the initiative will depend on progress in complying with the following terms and conditions in the context of implementing the Russia-UN Memorandum:
• reconnecting Russian Agricultural Bank (RusAg) to SWIFT;
• resuming supplies of agricultural machinery, its parts and maintenance;
• lifting restrictions on insurance and reinsurance, plus lifting the ban on access to ports;
• resuming the Togliatti-Odessa ammonia pipeline operation;
• unblocking foreign assets and accounts of the Russian companies involved in the production and transport of food and fertilisers.
👉 Pending progress in complying with the above requirements, which are not new and should have been complied with as part of the Russia-UN Memorandum, our participation in the Black Sea Initiative will be suspended.

◾️Russia and China are developing their cooperation, including military-technical one, but "this is not a military alliance";
◾️The new strategic concept of NATO explicitly says about plans to develop relations with the countries of the Asia-Pacific region and to create a "global NATO";
◾The idea of creating a "global NATO" with the participation of the countries of the Asia-Pacific region is reminiscent of the military bloc of the "Axis powers" during World War II.

International information security: from chaos to order and cooperation
Key talking points:
🇷🇺 Russia predicted that the safe use of ICTs would become an integral part of the international political agenda of the 21st century. But Western countries began actively experimenting with the use of ICTs for political and military purposes.
🔹The US, desperately clinging to its elusive global dominance, has embarked on the way of imposing digital neocolonial dictatorship. Sanctions are imposed against “undesirable” countries; and attempts are made to “undermine” capacities in the most advanced areas – artificial intelligence, high-speed Internet, quantum computing.
❗️ It is clear, that the US and their like-minded partners are trying to reshape the agenda of specialized international negotiating platforms in line with their aggressive policy in information space.
🔹We advocate the concept of creating a just system of international information security based on confidence-building, cooperation, prevention of conflicts and an arms race, and the elaboration of a legal framework regulating the responsible behaviour of states.
🔹We are actively promoting corresponding initiative primarily within the United Nations Open-ended Working Group on security of and in the use of ICTs.
🌐 Our partners unanimously share this approach, while Western countries often refer to the idea of universal legally binding agreements as “utopian”.
🔹A separate aspect is ensuring equitable and secure access to the Internet for all states and their citizens.
☝️ It is in the best interest of most nations that the Internet remains an accessible and reliable platform for communication, education and business, as long as security of its national segments is assured.
