• Our miliary and law enforcement agencies maintain close contacts and exchange experience in areas related to the maintenance of reliable security.
• Our defence cooperation with Cuba is developing successfully in line with the agreements reached by the two countries.
☝️ Regarding international affairs, we reaffirmed our full solidarity with Cuba when it comes to combating the attempts by the US and the collective West as a whole to maintain their domination on the international stage by unscrupulous means.
• The BRICS nations have long been taking measures to reduce the share of US dollars in mutual payments and shift to payments in national currencies.
• Together with our Cuban friends, we are taking part in collective efforts to counter such policies and establish fair principles in global affairs with strict compliance with the principles of the UN Charter in their entirety and, above all, the principle of the sovereign equality of states.
📄 The new version of the Concept of Russia’s foreign policy pays significantly more attention to Latin America <…> This concept does not involve imposing any solutions on Latin American and Caribbean countries from outside. It is based on our interest in developing our relations built on mutual respect, mutually beneficial progress in the economy, trade and foreign policy.

⚡️ Комментарий С.В.Лаврова по итогам встречи с Генеральным секретарём ООН А.Гутеррешем
📍 Нью-Йорк, 24 апреля 2023 года
💬 С.В.Лавров: Только закончилась встреча с Генеральным секретарём ООН А.Гутеррешем. Она продолжалась больше часа. Рассмотрели все вопросы, которые сейчас актуальны на повестке дня ООН.
А.Гутерреш особенно уделил внимание перспективам дальнейшей реализации «черноморской инициативы» в контексте его собственного предложения, внесенного и одобренного 22 июля 2022 г. Оно, как он сам подчёркивал, имеет пакетный характер. Это содействие вывозу украинского зерна из украинских портов и аналогичное обязательство перед Российской Федерацией в том, что касается снятия препон, созданных западными странами (американцами, ЕС, Великобританией) на пути экспорта наших зерновых, прежде всего пшеницы, и удобрений.
Генеральный секретарь рассказал о своих усилиях с целью максимально продвинуть российскую часть сделки. Пока прогресс не очень сильно заметен. Он передал нам свои соображения в виде письма, в котором изложены идеи о том, как действовать дальше. Это письмо требует изучения.
Пока мы не видим желания западных стран по-настоящему выполнить то, что необходимо для успешной реализации инициативы Генерального секретаря о пакетном подходе к экспорту сельхозпродуктов из Украины и Российской Федерации.
Будем изучать его идеи, переданные нам "на бумаге".

🇷🇺🇵🇸 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s opening remarks at a meeting with Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the State of Palestine Riyad al-Maliki
📍 New York, April 25, 2023
💬 We appreciate this opportunity to meet and discuss cooperation on the occasion of the Security Council meeting on the Middle East, including the question of Palestine.
We have presented our position, and I believe the debate will confirm the position of the majority of members of not only the Security Council but also the members of the UN who are in favour of urgently resuming the dialogue based on Security Council and General Assembly resolutions regarding a two-state solution with all the issues of a final status to be subject to negotiation directly by the Palestinians and Israelis.
And, of course, this is a good opportunity to discuss our bilateral relations which we would like to promote. We have some ideas in this regard.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the UN Security Council open debate on the Situation in the Middle East, Including the Palestinian Question
📍 New York, April 25, 2023
Read in full
Key talking points:
🌐 The Middle East is currently going through a profound transformation that is unfolding in a way that is rather contradictory.
🔹 We attribute priority importance to building a sustainable and inclusive security and cooperation architecture in the Middle East and promoting interfaith and intercultural dialogue.
☝️ We welcome the positive changes that even a short time ago seemed so difficult to achieve. I am referring, first and foremost, to the restoration of relations between Saudi Arabia and Islamic Republic of Iran with the mediation of the People’s Republic of China, the plans to bring Syria back into the Arab family – something we have been working on for a long time – and the normalisation of relations between Damascus and Ankara, which has begun with Russia’s assistance using the advantages offered by the Astana format.
🔹 We have to state with deep regret and concern that these positive changes have left the Palestinian issue on the sidelines.
🔹 The absolute imperative, however, is for all leading actors to reaffirm the lack of any alternatives to the two-state solution as one ensuring the right of Palestinians to their own independent state with the capital in East Jerusalem and the right of Israelis to safe and peaceful coexistence with their neighbours and the region as a whole.
🇺🇸🇪🇺 The US and the EU continue their destructive attempts to substitute genuine peace with some economic half measures and promote the Arab-Israeli normalisation bypassing the just solution to the Palestinian problem and the Arab Peace Initiative.
🇷🇺 Russia will continue to contribute to stabilisation in the Middle East and North Africa, and to promote the Middle East peace process together will the countries in the region and in coordination with other mediators acting in good faith.

🎙 FM Sergey Lavrov’s news conference following his visit to the US within the framework of Russia’s presidency of the UN Security Council
Key topics:
🔹 On non-issuance of visas to Russian journalists
🔹 Situation in Sudan
🔹 Realization of Black Sea Initiative
🔹 US Presidential Election
🔹 Expansion of NATO to the East
🔹 On detained US citizens in Russia
🔹 On Russia's President visit to Türkiye
🔹 Situation in Ukraine
🔹 Middle East settlement process
🔹 On supplies to Kiev regime depleted uranium shells for Challenger 2 tanks
🔹 On sanctions against Russia imposed by collective West
🔹 Situation in Afghanistan
🔹 On Iran nuclear deal
💬 Sergey Lavrov: Our wish is that no security threats come from the territory of Ukraine. These threats have accumulated there for years, especially after the state coup in February 2014. Another wish of ours is that people who consider themselves Russian speakers, members of the Russian culture and faith, which they have always practiced through the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, will not be subjected to discrimination, persecution and threats of extermination.
• We have long come to the conclusion that we can only rely on ourselves and those who honour their agreements. We will never again rely on those who lie, who constantly deceive others and who try to gain illegitimate unilateral advantage.
• The sanctions against Russia are indeed something that nobody has ever seen or been able to imagine. But for us it is a resolved issue. We have all the capacities to be independent from this sort of behaviour by our Western colleagues who have proven their complete inability to negotiate.
• There are those in the EU who do want to allow Ukraine to join on an expedited basis. That will just show that it has nothing to do with meeting the criteria but that it’s just a geopolitical game of laying paws on as much territory as possible which will belong to no one.

#Throwback to 1945 and the original manuscript of the #UnitedNations Charter preamble, complete with handwritten notes.
More than 77 years ago, 50 nations came together in San Francisco, California to create a new organization for peace, prosperity and human rights.
Still today, the Charter serves as an indelible reminder of the important role of multilateralism when seeking solutions to the biggest challenges facing humanity.
