⚡️ 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.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks and answers to media questions following his visit to the Republic of Kenya
📍 Nairobi, May 29, 2023
💬 We held meetings in Kenya’s capital Nairobi with President William Ruto, National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula and Foreign Minister Alfred Mutua. The talks took place in a friendly atmosphere and allowed us to conduct a sincere, trust-based exchange of views on all key international issues and map out ways of further developing bilateral cooperation.
<...>
We discussed the development of ties between Russia and the African Union. The Second Russia-Africa Summit will play a special role in this respect. It will take place in St. Petersburg in late July. Our Kenyan friends and we seriously hope the decisions that are being drafted will help promote practical cooperation and development of our interaction in the international arena.
🌍 We exchanged views on the situation in Europe. President of Kenya William Ruto views the developments around Ukraine in this context. We described in detail our assessment of the situation that took shape due to the West’s perennial line towards creating direct threats to Russia’s security, encouraging the Kiev regime to destroy all things Russian and our entire common history, and the discrimination against Russian-speaking citizens of Ukraine, who associate themselves with the traditional Orthodox Church, the Russian language, culture and education. It seems to me that our partners understand us.
🤝 We also reviewed the need to reform the world economy, global finances, the IMF, the World Bank and the World Trade Organisation. We have identical opinions on these issues. <...> It will take time to reach these goals. This is hard work but we are v. I am content with the results of my visit.
