🎙 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.

📃 Joint Statement of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus on their shared vision of the Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century
Common Vision of a Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the XXI century
💬 We, the representatives of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus proceed from the recognition of the following key realities of our time:
DIVERSITY AS THE WORLD'S FOUNDATION — Diversity in basics of life, civilizations, cultures, traditions, peculiar features of historical development and value systems has been inherent to the world, while the state's formation as the key unit of international relations has given rise to a diversity in forms of political governance and models of domestic social, economic, cultural and humanitarian development that states came to assume. <...>
MULTIPOLARITY ON THE HORIZON — The world's inherent diversity has set it on an inexorable trajectory towards multipolarity. The trend presents an opportunity to build a lasting, fair and inclusive democratic world order underpinned by peaceful coexistence for the sake of ensuring security and full prosperity for all countries based on mutually beneficial cooperation and genuine multilateralism. <...>
IMPORTANCE OF EURASIA — Factors like geographical location, size, population and resource potential have all combined to shape Eurasia in a historical perspective as a vital player in international relations, which still drives global development in general. It is Eurasia that makes a major contribution to sustained growth in the world economy while it is here that independent development centers strengthen their global reach. <...>
☝️ In this regard we commit ourselves to:
RELY ON INTERNATIONAL LAW — Be guided in our actions by the norms of international law, based on the UN Charter in its both entirety and interrelationship as well as on other international legally binding documents. <...>
CREATE A MULTIPOLAR WORLD — Promote efforts to establish, in a most accelerated manner possible, a multipolar world and a just global order. <...>
STRENGTHEN SECURITY — Build a new pan-continental security cooperation architecture predicated on the principles of indivisible security, justice, legitimacy, sustainability and joint contribution by stakeholders. <...>
MAKE USE OF EURASIAN MECHANISMS — Make use of multilateral cooperation mechanisms operating on the Eurasian continent, including, among others, the #EAEU, #CSTO, #CIS, #SCO, #ASEAN, #CICA, #LAS, #GCC and the #UnionState with regard to cooperation in specific areas, while promoting cross-platform activities and joint initiatives. <...>
🇷🇺🇧🇾 We, the representatives of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus invite all Eurasian states to join a dialogue on a whole range of issues that affect principles of cooperation in the multipolar era and that cover a pan-continental architecture of security; cooperation and development with the view to drafting a "Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the XXI Century", while giving due consideration to the provisions set out in this document.
