Key talking points:
Read in full
• In the mid-2000s, the historical West began to ramp up its efforts to impose unipolarity and to aggressively promote ultra-liberal values that are unacceptable to most of the peoples of our planet. During this historical period, Russia and the Muslim world began to consistently and steadily build mutually respectful partnerships.
• The plans entertained by current Western leaders who are toeing the line of diktat imposed by the United States do not include good, close or strategic relations between Russia and the Islamic world. But this state of affairs does not depend on Washington or other Western capitals.
• With more than 15 years of interaction within the Strategic Vision Group, our foreign colleagues could see for themselves and on multiple occasions that its activities are marked by a truly equitable and mutually respectful dialogue, avoidance of bloc mentality and lecturing, as well as a sincere and mutual willingness and an interest in developing common approaches to current issues.
• Our OIC partners are well aware of Russia’s successful experience of building a multiethnic and multi-religious state which has been highly praised and recognised by the Islamic world. Important practical recommendations have been expressed to counter terrorism and extremism, including at the ideology level.
• The Strategic Vision Group provides a platform for public and civic initiatives seeking to expand cooperation with Muslim countries and identify new areas for joint efforts. Trade and economic cooperation and efforts to identify new and promising areas for joint investment.

🎙 Interview by Special Representative of the Russian Foreign Minister for Cooperation with Organisations of Muslim States, Ambssador-at-Large Konstantin Shuvalov with RT on the sidelines of the XIV International Economic Forum "Russia - Islamic World: KazanForum" 2023.
💬 The situation is changing, including the global economy. These changes are the result of the neo-colonialist actions by the West, which are destroying everything that has been created. They are trying to restore and keep alive those schemes they have unilaterally invented, including replacing international law with their own rules. <...> The era of the dominance of the US dollar as the only currency of international importance and finance is passing.

🌍 On May 25, the world celebrates #AfricaDay.
On this day in 1963, exactly 60 years ago, African governments convened in Addis Ababa for the first conference which laid the foundation for the creation of the Organisation of African Unity.
🇷🇺 Russia and Africa are united by traditional bonds of friendship, and it is symbolic that this anniversary year we are holding the second #RussiaAfrica Summit.
🤝 The Soviet Union supported the African countries in their fight for independence and played an important role in the development of the young countries on the continent. Soviet military advisers worked in Africa and military specialists have served in Angola, Ethiopia, Egypt, Mozambique and other African countries at various times.
🤝 Under pressure from the Soviet Union, the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples was adopted, which declared the need to end colonialism and any other form of discrimination.
❌ The Western powers are not just continuing to exploit the African nations, pumping out resources while counting corporate profits, but they have also been cleaning up their own ugly past.
The falsification of history is also about the cynical unpublished campaign to hush up the horrors of the colonial era. The West is trying to pretend that the suffering that many generations of Africans have gone through, as well as racism, the slave trade, murders and punitive operations, had nothing to do with them
A quickly made-up story about “events” aimed to highlight white people of the West’s concern for people of colour has been planted, but in fact, this is nothing more than a flashmob with no deep realisation of the harm. On the contrary, the ideology of a “beautiful garden” and a “wild jungle” is being promoted.
There is the pretence that everything that took place back then, in the colonial era, seemed to have happened and at the same time not to have happened at all.
☝️ Yet Africa remembers.

⚡️ Meeting of the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council
Key talking points from the speech of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin:
💬 Cooperation continues to strengthen within the #EAEU, which is consistently asserting itself as one of the independent and self-sufficient centres of the emerging multipolar world.
🔹 Our continuing efforts to build integration dictate the need to strengthen, develop and modernise the supranational tools and institutions we have created, primarily the Economic Commission, which must be able to provide quick and proper responses to changes around the world and to make professional decisions aimed at protecting our common interests and promoting mutually beneficial integration.
☝️ The EAEU should expand relations with countries that are seeking equal and mutually beneficial partnership. I am talking about our partners in Asia, the Arab world, Africa, and Latin America. I mean cooperation with multilateral associations like the CIS, the SCO, BRICS and other associations.
🔹 It is important to continue to form free trade areas with interested countries and, among other things, to encourage them to jointly use the international transaction infrastructure available to the five member-countries in national currencies and the digital currencies of the central banks.
❗️ I am confident that by continuing to act as a team, we will certainly achieve new tangible results in promoting integration cooperation in the interests of our states and peoples.

🎙 Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Vershinin’s address at the 11th International Meeting of High Representatives for Security Issues (Moscow, May 25, 2023)
Key points:
💬 The collective West is continuing its disinformation campaign designed to blame Russia for the current crisis in the global food market.
❗️The illegal unilateral sanctions adopted by the collective West against Russia have seriously unbalanced global markets. Systemic restrictions have affected all economic operators and have disrupted traditional financial and logistics links and supply chains.
🔹 While accusing Russia of provoking famine without proof, the Americans and Europeans are not only strongly rejecting any indications of the destructive impact of their sanctions, but are also carefully sidestepping the fact that the rising prices of food and fertilisers and the unstable supplies of these goods to world markets benefits the largest Western agricultural corporations, in particular, the so-called big four.
🔹 An excellent example of the Western blockade of Russian agricultural exports is the free delivery of Russian fertilisers (262,000 tonnes) to the poorest countries, which have been stuck in the ports of Latvia, Estonia, Belgium and the Netherlands.
🇷🇺 Despite the sanctions, barriers and restrictions, Russia continues working to maintain our export potential, including by redirecting exports to friendly countries, primarily in Asia and Africa.
