14.03.2024, Moscow.

The task of creating a new security architecture in Eurasia is coming to the fore, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on March 13 at a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Gorchakov Foundation for Public Diplomacy Support.

“At the regional level, in the conditions of the mentioned complete degradation of the OSCE as a Euro-Atlantic symbol, the task of forming a new architecture of equal and indivisible security in Eurasia comes to the fore,” Lavrov said.

The Foreign Minister added that the foundation for such system has already been laid. He recalled the conference in Minsk, dedicated to the formation processes and prospects of creating a system of Eurasian security. Russia also participated in that conference.

Lavrov noted that creating such security system would strengthen the process of forming a large Eurasian partnership, which Russian President Vladimir Putin mentioned in his address to the Federal Assembly.

Such partnership is being formed thanks to the efforts of the Eurasian Economic Union, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, ASEAN and the Commonwealth of Independent States, the minister said.
