Putin sends greetings to Non-Aligned Movement summit - MOSCOW, September 15 (Itar-Tass) -- Russia views the Non-Aligned Movement as a key element of the modern architecture of international relations, and wishes to continue mutually beneficial cooperation, say President Vladimir Putin greetings to delegates and guests of the movement s 14th summit in Havana.
The world has encountered new threats terrorism, interethnic crises and conflicts, uneven economic development, and environmental problems, run the greetings posed by the Kremlin press service on Friday. I think that the search for collective solutions would be the most adequate way of reacting to these modern challenges. The search should be conducted not only by particular states but also by regional and international organizations.
This is the reason why the Non-Aligned Movement is in such demand nowadays. Over 100 member states display their readiness for a constructive discussion of major problems, a compromise and a collective stand. I am confident that these very principles should make the core of international relations in the 21st century, the greetings run.
Russia and the Non-Aligned Movement are brought together by the understanding of their common responsibility for the world future, the wish to overcome the confrontation logic, and the choice of multilateral partnership, Putin said. Our relations have a long and rich history. They have been invariably based on mutual respect, a high level of mutual understanding, and the wish to cooperate. We act hand-in-hand at the main international forum, the United Nations. Fair decisions in the reform of the international organization in keeping with modern requirements will meet our interests.
The Non-Aligned Movement is not only a key partner to Russia. We view it as a key element of the modern architecture of international relations and hope for further interaction for the benefit of people of our countries and the civilization at large, the greetings run.
"The Non-Aligned Movement is not only a key partner to Russia."
The Internationale all over again.
What a Communist scumbag he is. When is our political leadership going to wake up and cut this mega-terrorist off along with the Red Chinese? Free Trade with Free Countries!
Numerous radical states, some 'former' Soviet clients, within the Non-Aligned Movement are Putin's armed proxies in his hidden agenda to destroy the West.
