🇷🇺🇴🇲 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks during talks with Foreign Minister of Oman Sayyid Badr Albusaid (Moscow, July 11, 2023)

💬 Yesterday we had a useful dialogue between Russia and the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf (#GCC) under your chairmanship.

Thanks largely to the efforts of the Sultanate of Oman at the helm of our strategic dialogue with our Arab friends, we have achieved positive results in the form of our joint statement and action plan for the next five years. This is a good long-term basis for strengthening our partnership.

Today we have an opportunity to see how we are developing #RussiaOman cooperation in the light of the agreements in principle that have been reached at the top level. I am referring in particular to the telephone conversation between President Vladimir Putin and Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said in March of this year.

His Majesty has received an invitation to visit the Russian Federation. We want to fill the upcoming summit with specific agreements. Today we will pay special attention to the steps to be taken to conclude such agreements and treaties.

🤝 I would like to express my gratitude once again for the hospitality and attention that His Majesty and you personally extended to me and my delegation during our visit to Muscat in May 2022.

🎙 Statement by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov during the UN Security Council meeting on multilateral cooperation in the interest of a more just, democratic and sustainable world order (New York, July 16, 2024)

💬 The actions of the US and its allies are hindering international cooperation and the creation of a more just world. They have taken countries and regions hostage, prevent nations from realising their sovereign rights declared in the UN Charter

<...>

I am confident that this situation can be changed if there is good will, of course. To stop the implementation of a negative scenario, we would like to propose to discuss a number of steps towards restoring trust and stabilising the international situation.

1. The root causes of the ongoing crisis in Europe should be eliminated once and for all. The conditions for restoring stable peace in Ukraine have been put forth by President of Russia Vladimir Putin.

A political and diplomatic settlement should be complemented with practical steps, to be taken in the West and the Euro-Atlantic community, to remove threats to the Russian Federation. The coordination of mutual guarantees and agreements should be based on the recognition of the new geostrategic realities on the Eurasian continent, where a continental architecture of really equal and indivisible security is taking shape. Europe risks lagging behind this objective historical process. We are ready to discuss a balance of interests.

2. The restoration of the regional and global balance of forces should be accompanied with active efforts to eliminate injustices in the global economy. There must be no monopoly in monetary and financial regulation, trade and technologies, by definition. <...>

3. Major fundamental changes are necessary in other institutes of global governance if we want them to work to the benefit of all. This primarily concerns the United Nations Organisation, which remains the embodiment of multilateralism against all the odds, with unique and universal legitimacy and universally recognised broad competencies.

An important step towards the restoration of the UN’s effectiveness would be the reconfirmation by all Member States of their commitment to the principles of the UN Charter, not selectively but in their entirety and as a whole. <...>

4. Regional associations have practical significance for the development of multipolarity, including the #CIS, the #CSTO, the #EAEU, #ASEAN, the Gulf Cooperation Council (#GCC), the Arab League, the African Union and #CELAC. <...>.

❗️It depends on member countries alone whether our world will be diverse and equitable. The Charter of our Organisation is our foothold.
