📆 #SPIEF: On June 6 at 15:00 Moscow Time (GMT+3), as part of the business programme of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum 2024, the Valdai Discussion Club will hold its ninth annual special session for the event: “Conflict or Harmony? The Secret of Proper Development in the 21st Century.”
📍The event will take place in Conference Hall G2 at Pavilion G of the ExpoForum Convention and Exhibition Centre, and will be open to all Forum attendees. The session will also be livestreamed on the Club’s website.
The theme of this year’s Valdai Club discussion is based on the premise that modern conflicts are a legacy of a past era and not a means to shape a future one. Instead, the future success of global and national development depends on our ability to avoid conflict.
The Valdai Club will provide an opportunity for experts from Russia, India, Indonesia, China and South Africa to present views that differ from Western concepts and discuss ways of promoting conflict-free harmonious development.
Participants in the Valdai Club session will consider the following issues:
❓How could interstate contradictions be resolved without clashes?
❓What conditions contribute to the harmonious development of diverse societies?
❓How can we overcome inequality, which gives rise to social conflicts and leads to political conflict?
❓Is the global community prepared to recognize the futility of conflict and seek new paths of development?
By tradition, the Valdai Club session at SPIEF-2024 will be opened by Andrey Bystritskiy, Chairman of the Board of the Foundation for Development and Support of the Valdai Discussion Club.

🇮🇳 Ram Madhav Varanasi, President of the India Foundation (India)

🇺🇸⛔️ In the United States, both houses of Congress approved the bill H.R. 8038, titled “21st Century Peace through Strength Act”.
In Russia, the bill received resonance in connection with the legal mechanism for the confiscation of Russia’s sovereign assets. Previously, there were no such mechanisms in the arsenal of US sanctions policy towards Russia.
The new federal legislation gives the president a mechanism that was previously absent from the executive branch. The head of state, by his decrees, may freeze, but not confiscate, the property of a foreign state.
In the future, this legal mechanism can be expanded, writes Valdai Club Programme Director Ivan Timofeev.

🇹🇷🇮🇱 The IDF's Operation Iron Swords in the Gaza Strip is exceptional in its scale and duration, as well as due to numerous associated consequences, including Turkey’s decision to suspend trade ties with Israel.
In early April of this year, the Turkish Ministry of Trade suspended 54 categories of goods from being exported to Israel, ranging from construction materials to aviation fuel. Ankara said the introduction of restrictions had been motivated by the “gross violations of international law” the IDF had committed during Operation Iron Swords, and declared a ceasefire as a condition for the lifting of sanctions. In the first days of May, citing the same reasons, Turkish authorities announced a complete cessation of export and import transactions with Israel.
A new round of disagreements between the two states risks aggravating the internal political situation in Israel and its position in the system of international economic relations. Additionally, it signals that the Israeli leadership has not sufficiently elaborated its regional strategy, despite the country’s desire to continue normalisation with its neighbours, writes Elizaveta Yakimova.

Trade Adversaries: The Impact of the IDF Military Operation in the Gaza Strip on Economic Relations Between Israel and Turkey

❓🇪🇺 On the eve of the next elections to the European Parliament (EP), which are due to take place on June 6-9, 2024, the attention of experts, as usual, is on the Eurosceptic parties, which are once again predicted to increase their presence.
In the most general terms, Euroscepticism reflects an attitude of protest regarding deepening European integration, the transfer of states’ sovereign power to the supranational level and the power of European political elites at the expense of democratic legitimacy and transparency.
But is Euroscepticism as dangerous as they say, and will it be possible to shake the positions of the ruling centre-right coalition led by the European People's Party (EPP), asks Daria Moiseeva, senior research fellow at IMEMO RAS.
