Moscow: Russian President Vladimir Putin’s speech to the participants of the 12th International Meeting of High Representatives on Security Issues.
Welcome to St.
In upcoming plenary sessions, discussions and roundtables, you will analyze the global landscape, discuss critical aspects of global and regional stability, and brainstorm ways to strengthen responses to today’s most pressing and threatening issues.
Undoubtedly, international terrorism remains one of the biggest threats of the 21st century. Terrorist attacks in some areas are not only controlled by radical groups, but also by the intelligence services of some countries. Their goal is to destroy the constitutional foundation and destabilize the sovereign state, and increase the misunderstanding between nations and religions. At the same time, the tactics used by these criminals are becoming more sophisticated and brutal.
This is proven by the bloody terrorist attack that took place in the Moscow region on March 22. Russian intelligence and law enforcement agencies are investigating and investigating every detail of this heinous act, identifying all parties, including participants, sponsors, and orchestrators. No one should just escape punishment.
I know that your meeting will mainly focus on protecting the information space from external and internal threats. This topic is very important for all nations because it contributes significantly to ensuring national security, social stability and economic development.
We support the consistent and collaborative efforts of the global community to establish uniform, legally binding norms and principles that govern the behavior of states in the information sector.
Undoubtedly, the main factor for strengthening the sovereignty and security of the nation is the preservation and protection of traditional spiritual and moral values. Historical experience shows that countries that preserve their national identity and the unique heritage of their people develop stably and independently with respect for their ancestral heritage and respect for other cultures and traditions.
This approach is more relevant in the contemporary landscape, characterized by the emergence of a multipolar international order and the gradual shift to Global Multiplicity. The new growth center activates its influence.
I want to say once again: Russia is ready to cooperate closely with all partners interested in maintaining global and regional security and creating a new multipolar international order that meets the interests of the majority of nations.
I believe that your meeting today will promote cooperation in the interest of world peace and stability for the mutual benefit of our country and nation.
