📖 О международном антикоррупционном сотрудничестве
Читайте полностью
🇷🇺 Российская Федерация последовательно выступает за укрепление сотрудничества государств в деле противодействия коррупции при центральной координирующей роли ООН и на основе Конвенции ООН против коррупции.
Значительное внимание уделяется обеспечению российского участия в Антикоррупционной рабочей группе «Группы двадцати». Последний ежегодный доклад о прогрессе #G20 был сфокусирован на вопросах противодействия коррупции на таможне и в спорте.
Перспективным является антикоррупционный формат #БРИКС, позволяющий координировать там подходы «пятёрки» к наиболее значимым вопросам международного антикоррупционного сотрудничества, а также оказывать поддержку инициативам партнёров на различных международных площадках. В числе приоритетных пунктов повестки дня объединения – противодействие бегству коррупционеров от правосудия и сокрытию их капиталов.
Российская Федерация также входит в Межгосударственный совет по противодействию коррупции в рамках #СНГ, состоит в Группе по борьбе с коррупцией и обеспечению транспарентности #АТЭС, является участницей ряда профильных международных соглашений.
Значительное внимание уделяется антикоррупционному образованию. Россия ведет профильные проекты с Управлением ООН по наркотикам и преступности и Международной антикоррупционной академией. В последние годы реализовано большое количество обучающих инициатив совместно с партнёрами по БРИКС.

🇷🇺🇨🇳 On April 8-9, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was on an official visit to China, where he was received by President of China Xi Jinping and held extensive talks with Foreign Minister of China Wang Yi.
The Chinese leader welcomed Sergey Lavrov’s arrival in Beijing as an important step of comprehensive preparations for President of Russia Vladimir Putin’s state visit to China, scheduled to take place this year.
Xi Jinping praised the current state of bilateral relations, which continue to develop dynamically considering the difficult situation in the world, and stated his readiness to further strengthen comprehensive partnership and strategic cooperation with Russia.
<...>
During Sergey Lavrov’s talks with Wang Yi, the schedule of bilateral contacts at the high and highest levels was discussed, as well as separate issues of practical cooperation in various fields.
The two countries’ Foreign Ministers stressed the importance to promote mutual cooperation with the #UN, #SCO, #BRICS, #G20, #APEC and other multilateral mechanisms and forums. The Ministers also discussed ways to ensure security and stability in the Asia-Pacific regions considering the US’s policy to create limited-membership closed military-political alliances there, which are anti-Russia and anti-China.
Separate matters related to the developments around the Korean peninsula and Taiwan, as well as within the Middle Eastern settlement process, were discussed, as well as prospects of forming new security architecture in Eurasia against the backdrop of stagnating Euro-Atlantic mechanisms.
<...>
The talks, held in Beijing in a traditionally trustful and friendly atmosphere, showed the two countries’ converging approaches to the major global processes and reaffirmed the importance of further promoting bilateral cooperation for strengthening peace and stability in the region and on the whole planet.
