Vladimir Putin congratulated current staff and veterans of the Russian Federation Foreign Ministry on their professional holiday, Diplomatic Worker’s Day
“The best qualities of our country’s diplomatic service are much in demand today amidst the hybrid war unleashed against Russia. It is extremely important now to make the most of our foreign policy instruments to defend our state sovereignty and national security. The country managed not only to thwart the plans of the collective West to isolate Russia but also to step up cooperation with the majority of members of the international community largely owing to your efforts. I am referring to the states in Eurasia, the Middle East, the Asia-Pacific, Africa and Latin America. The agenda now is to continue building on this interaction with responsible international partners. It is particularly important to strengthen ties with the CIS countries, promote Eurasian integration processes, consolidate our alliance within the CSTO, realise the full potential of the Union State and expand cooperation in such associations as the SCO and BRICS,“ the message reads in part.
