🎙 Comment by Yury Ushakov, Aide to the President of the Russian Federation, on the outcomes of Russia's President Vladimir Putin’s telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump (July 3, 2025)
💬 Yuri Ushakov: Dear colleagues,
🇷🇺🇺🇸📞 Another almost hour-long telephone conversation between President of Russia Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and President of the United States Donald Trump has just concluded.
Donald Trump began the conversation by announcing that the US Congress passed his administration's flagship bill envisaging reforms in taxation, immigration, and the energy sector. President Trump himself calls it the 'One Big Beautiful Bill.'
Vladimir Putin wished Donald Trump success in implementing the changes he envisioned and, naturally, offered greetings for Independence Day, the national day of the United States, which will be celebrated tomorrow.
At the same time, it was noted by our side that Russia had played a significant part in the establishment of the United States as a nation, including during the War of Independence, fought 250 years ago, and later during the Civil War, which ended 160 years ago.
It was stated that our countries are bound not only by their alliance during World Wars One and Two, but also by deeper historical ties.
Incidentally, Vladimir Putin mentioned that just before speaking with Donald Trump, he had a conversation with representatives of Russia's business community. One of the ideas suggested during that meeting was holding an exchange of motion pictures promoting traditional values, which both we and the Trump administration hold dear. President Trump reacted immediately and said he liked this idea.
There was a detailed discussion of the situation surrounding Iran, and the state of affairs in the Middle East in general. The Russian side emphasised it was crucial to settle any and all contentious issues, differences, and conflicts exclusively via political and diplomatic means. The two leaders agreed to maintain contact on the issue between the respective foreign services, defence ministries, and presidential aides.
The latest developments in Syria were addressed as well. Similarly, the Russian and US sides intend to continue the dialogue on the matter.
Naturally, the issues surrounding Ukraine were also discussed. Donald Trump has once again raised the issue of ending the hostilities as soon as possible. In turn, Vladimir Putin noted that we still continued the search for a political, negotiated solution to the conflict. He informed his counterpart on the progress in implementing the humanitarian agreements reached during the second round of direct Russian-Ukrainian talks held in Istanbul. He also noted Russia was willing to pursue negotiations.
☝️ Additionally, the President of Russia said that Russia would strive to achieve its goals, namely the elimination of the well-known root causes that led to the current state of affairs, the bitter confrontation that we are seeing now. Russia will not back down from these goals.
While exchanging views on bilateral matters, the two sides confirmed their mutual interest in implementing a number of promising projects in economy, notably the energy sector and space exploration.
Overall, I would like to point out that the conversation between the two Presidents has, as always, shown that they are on the same page. It was candid, business-minded, and concrete. The two Presidents will naturally continue communicating and will have another conversation soon.

📄 XVII BRICS Summit Rio de Janeiro Declaration "Strengthening Global South Cooperation for a More Inclusive and
Sustainable Governance"
Full text of the Declaration
Excerpts from the Declaration:
• We reiterate our commitment to reforming and improving global governance by promoting a more just, equitable, agile, effective, efficient, responsive, representative, legitimate, democratic and accountable international and multilateral system in the spirit of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits.
• We reaffirm our commitment to multilateralism and upholding the international law, including the Purposes and Principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations (UN), in their entirety and interconnectedness as its indispensable cornerstone, and the central role of the UN in the international system.
🇺🇳 We reiterate our support for a comprehensive reform of the United Nations, including its Security Council, with a view to making it more democratic, representative, effective and efficient, and to increase the representation of developing countries in the Council’s memberships so that it can adequately respond to prevailing global challenges and support the legitimate aspirations of emerging and developing countries from Africa, Asia and Latin America, including BRICS countries, to play a greater role in international affairs, in particular in the United Nations, including its Security Council.
🌐 We acknowledge that multipolarity can expand opportunities for EMDCs to develop their constructive potential and enjoy universally beneficial, inclusive and equitable economic globalization and cooperation.
• We condemn the imposition of unilateral coercive measures that are contrary to international law, and reiterate that such measures, inter alia in the form of unilateral economic sanctions and secondary sanctions, have far-reaching negative implications for the human rights, including the rights to development, health and food security, of the general population of targeted states, disproportionally affecting the poor and people in vulnerable situations, deepening the digital divide and exacerbating environmental challenges. We call for the elimination of such unlawful measures, which undermine international law and the principles and purposes of the UN Charter.
• We reaffirm that BRICS member states do not impose or support non-UN Security Council authorized sanctions that are contrary to international law.
• We condemn the military strikes against the Islamic Republic of Iran since 13 June 2025, which constitute a violation of international law and the Charter of the United Nations, and express grave concern over the subsequent escalation of the security situation in the Middle East.
• We recall that the Gaza Strip is an inseparable part of the Occupied Palestinian Territory. We underline, in this regard, the importance of unifying the West Bank and the Gaza Strip under the Palestinian Authority, and reaffirm the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, including the right to their independent State of Palestine.
• We reiterate that the principle 🌍 “African solutions to African problems” should continue to serve as the basis for conflict resolution on the African continent.
❗️ We condemn in the strongest terms the attacks against bridges and railways infrastructure deliberately targeting civilians in Bryansk, Kursk and Voronezh regions of the Russian Federation on 31 May, 1 and 5 June 2025, resulting in multiple civilian casualties, including children.
• We commend 🇧🇷 Brazil’s BRICS Chairship in 2025 and express our gratitude to the government and people of Brazil for holding the XVII BRICS Summit in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
• We extend full support to 🇮🇳 India for its BRICS Chairship in 2026 and the holding of the XVIII BRICS Summit in India.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at Session II of the XVII BRICS Summit «Strengthening multilateral world order, financial and economic issues, artificial intelligence» (Rio de Janeiro, July 6, 2025)
📄 Read in full
Key talking points:
• Strengthening the multilateral world order while the international system goes through fundamental transformations is one of the crucial tasks for #BRICS and for the entire international community.
• Multipolarity is not a choice but rather an objective reality which succeeds the outdated neoliberal model that actually builds on neocolonial practices. The traditional paradigm of globalization where the predominant role is played by the so-called developed states of the West is becoming a relic.
• Countries of the Global South and East are becoming a main driving force of the global economic growth. Regional organizations such as the African Union, CELAC, ASEAN, SCO, EAEU are playing an increased role. In this context conceptual and practical approaches are being developed to establish a new architecture of world economy based on the principles of equality, multilateralism and non-discrimination in trade, financial settlements, technology, logistics.
• BRICS countries account for more than 40% of the global gross domestic product based on purchasing power parity, and together with partner countries this figure is at 45% or 93 trillion dollars. Today BRICS represents more than 20% of global trade and almost a half of world population.
• The share of BRICS countries in trade with Russia is constantly growing and in 2014 it exceeded 48%, with 90% of mutual settlements made in national currencies.
• It is of significant importance to pursue the reform and depolarization of the Bretton-Woods institutions which should reflect a real state of affairs in the world economy. The continued use of the IMF and WB with a view to preserve neocolonial practices is unacceptable.
• The increasingly aggressive attempts by the West to introduce ideological ultimatums into the dialogue as what are virtually the main criteria – based on Western interpretations of human rights and democracy – are having an extremely negative impact on the delivery of the UN sustainable development goals.
• To address imbalances and to mobilize resources for development Russia introduced an initiative to create within BRICS a New Investment Platform with the participation of the New Development Bank (NDB). We thank colleagues for showing their interest to the promising initiative.
• Artificial Intelligence is becoming a critical technology. Experts estimate that AI contribution to the global domestic product will be at 20 trillion dollars by 2030.
• We will need to address issues related to ensuring universal access to advance developments in this field. Secret initiatives put forward by a number of countries and with restricted participation with a view to promote non-consensus approaches are fraught with the most serious consequences.
• The challenges associated with the development of digital technologies are transnational in nature and require collective response.
• I am convinced that BRICS nations together with like-minded countries will continue to lead in promoting a just multipolar world order that will provide favourable conditions for sustainable development of all States without exception.

🎙 Remarks by President of Russia Vladimir Putin at the main Plenary Session of the XVII BRICS Summit (July 6, 2025)
💬 President Putin: Colleagues, friends.
First of all, I would like to join the words of gratitude to President Lula da Silva and the Brazilian Chairmanship for their active efforts in advancing the strategic partnership within #BRICS.
It is important that the BRICS countries continue to deepen their cooperation across key sectors in politics, security, the economy and finance, cultural and humanitarian contacts.
This group has significantly grown and now includes leading states in Eurasia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Together, we possess a vast political, economic, scientific, technological, and human potential.
📈 The BRICS countries account for not only a third of the Earth’s landmass and almost half the planet’s population, but also for 40 percent of the global economy, while their combined GDP at purchasing power parity stands at $77 trillion. This is the 2025 data according to the IMF. By the way, BRICS is substantially ahead of other groups in this parameter, including G7 with $57 trillion.
Year after year, our group’s global authority and influence continue growing. BRICS has rightfully established itself as one of the key centres of global governance, with our collective voice in support of the global majority’s vital interests resonating ever more powerfully across the international stage.
BRICS has many supporters in the Global South and East. The culture of an open partnership and cooperation, mutual respect and consideration for each other’s interests in the group appeals to them. Based on this knowledge, during the summit in Kazan, Russia, in October 2024, we decided to establish a category of BRICS partner states, to develop ad hoc practical cooperation with all interested countries. BRICS has ten partner states to date.
🌐 I will stress that the BRICS countries represent different development models, religions, authentic civilisations and cultures, while unanimously upholding equality and neighbourliness. They prioritise traditional values, the high ideals of friendship and accord, striving to contribute to global stability and security, the prosperity and success of all nations. Without doubt, this constructive approach and unifying agenda are highly relevant amidst the geopolitical challenges of today.
We all see that the world is experiencing tectonic shifts. The unipolar system of international relations that once served the interests of the so-called golden billion, is losing its relevance, replaced by a more just multi-polar world. Global economic patterns are changing faster. Everything indicates that the liberal globalisation model is becoming obsolete while the centre of business activity is gravitating towards developing markets, launching a powerful growth wave, including in the BRICS countries. To maximise the emerging prospects, it is important to intensify cooperation within the group, primarily in technology, effective resource development, logistics, insurance, trade and finance.
It is important to continue expanding the use of national currencies in mutual payments. It is believed that creating an independent payment and monetary system within BRICS will expedite currency transactions while also ensuring their effectiveness and security. Furthermore, using national currencies in trade within BRICS is steadily growing. In 2024, the share of Russia’s national currency, the ruble, and the currencies of our friendly states in transactions with Russia and other BRICS countries reached 90 percent.

⚡️ Опубликован второй совместный доклад Министерства иностранных дел Республики Беларусь и Министерства иностранных дел Российской Федерации о ситуации с правами человека в отдельных странах.

Из обращения к читателям заместителя Министра иностранных дел Российской Федерации С.В.Вершинина и заместителя Министра иностранных дел Республики Беларусь И.В.Секреты:
❗️Примеры нарушения прав человека, иллюстрирующие негативные проявления и тенденции в сфере прав человека в некоторых странах:
🇫🇷 #Франция
Франция, еврейская община которой считается одной из крупнейших в Европе (порядка 500 тыс.), продолжает занимать первые позиции в ЕС по числу антисемитских акций. Причём в большинстве случаев антисемитизм исходит не от ультраправых сил, а от радикализированной мусульманской части населения.
В 2024 году зарегистрировано 1570 антисемитских инцидентов по сравнению с 1676 таких происшествий в 2023 году, что в 4 раза больше, чем в 2022 году.
🇩🇪 #ФРГ
ФРГ сохраняет двойные стандарты в вопросе о выплатах индивидуальных компенсаций тем, кто пережил блокаду Ленинграда, являющуюся одним из самых страшных актов геноцида нацистской Германии в отношении народов Советского Союза в ходе Великой Отечественной войны.
Берлин под надуманными предлогами ограничивает круг получателей выплат блокадниками-евреями, отказываясь распространить их на остальных выживших в блокаде защитников и жителей города.
🇬🇧 #Британия
В стране сохраняются глубинные и зачастую игнорируемые международными правозащитными механизмами проблемы – проявления расизма, дискриминация национальных меньшинств, замалчивание «наследия» североирландского межобщинного конфликта и др.
В части конкретных проявлений расизма значительное внимание уделено дискриминации лиц африканского происхождения в системе обеспечения правопорядка, правосудия, исполнения наказаний. Три четверти женщин неевропейского происхождения (всего в работе приняли участие около 2 тыс. представительниц этой группы населения наряду с одной тысячей женщин европейского происхождения) сталкиваются с проявлениями расизма на рабочем месте

Из обращения к читателям заместителя Министра иностранных дел Российской Федерации С.В.Вершинина и заместителя Министра иностранных дел Республики Беларусь И.В.Секреты:
Данное исследование, как и предыдущий одноимённый доклад, является действенным механизмом синхронизации усилий в правозащитной сфере, предпринимаемых нашими странами, которые связаны многолетними традициями дружбы и взаимопомощи, культурным и духовным родством, общим историческим прошлым и ориентирами на будущее. Большое внимание в документе уделено совместному сохранению исторической правды, что особенно важно в 80-ю годовщину Победы в Великой Отечественной войне и во Второй мировой войне.
Доклад направлен на защиту нашей совместной истории, что отличает его от аналогичных западоцентричных изысканий, которые переполнены нравоучениями и лицемерными рассуждениями об абстрактных критериях, уводя читательскую аудиторию от понимания реального положения дел.
Покрывая проявления героизации нацизма, расизма, ксенофобии и связанной с ними нетерпимости, открытую пропаганду откровенно расистских идей и постулатов, пытаясь наново переписать историю и расколоть общество по этническому, языковому и религиозному признакам, такие государства полностью перечеркнули все свои рассуждения об универсальности прав человека.

🎙 Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at #RussiaASEAN Ministerial Meeting (Kuala Lumpur, July 10, 2025)
💬 It is a genuine pleasure to join you all here in Kuala Lumpur today.
First, I would like to thank Malaysia for the hospitality and the excellent organisation of today’s event, and express gratitude to Myanmar, as the coordinator of the Russia-ASEAN dialogue, for its efforts in advancing our strategic partnership.
This year marks the 80th anniversary of Victory in World War II. The defeat of Nazi Germany and militarist Japan, to which our country made a decisive contribution, created the conditions for the decolonisation process in Asia and elsewhere, and the subsequent formation of a modern security and cooperation architecture in the Asia-Pacific region. The association lies at its core.
🤝 The first Russia-ASEAN summit was held right here in Malaysia’s capital 20 years ago. It not only elevated our dialogue to a whole new level, but also cemented its comprehensive nature, as reflected in the Declaration adopted at the leaders’ meeting. Then, in 2018, our partnership was officially granted strategic status.
Today, it is safe to say that ASEAN is truly Russia’s reliable friend and like-minded partner. We are united by our commitment to broad-based and equitable international cooperation based on the UN Charter and the full set of interconnected principles that are laid out in the Charter. For our part, we consistently support the centrality of ten ASEAN countries in regional affairs.
🌐 Next year will mark the 35th anniversary of Russia-ASEAN relations, which, as I just mentioned, have gained fundamentally new depth over the years. Russia-ASEAN partnership strongly contributes to stability in the Asia-Pacific region. Cooperation in politics, security, and countering new challenges and threats continues to make strides. The economy, energy, agriculture, and humanitarian ties are marked by positive dynamics.
We believe today’s meeting will help unlock further potential in our dialogue, expand its sectoral agenda, and launch new joint mechanisms especially in science-intensive and high-tech sectors.
✍️ The adoption of a new Russia-ASEAN policy paper for 2026-2030 is intended to advance these objectives. This document will outline current goals and priority cooperation areas.
We look forward to a constructive outcome from today’s discussions.

#HistoryOfDiplomacy
📆 On July 14, 1700, a peace treaty was signed in Constantinople between Russia and the Ottoman Empire, known as the Treaty of Constantinople.
The agreement marked the end of the gruelling Russo-Turkish War of 1686–1700, which began after Russia joined the Holy League – a defensive alliance of Austria, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and Venice against the Ottomans.
⚔️During the war, Russia launched the Crimean (1687, 1689) and the Azov (1695–1696) campaigns. The capture of Azov was a landmark victory and Russia’s first major success achieved by its regular army and navy, with Peter the Great personally leading the effort. This victory also secured Ottoman neutrality in the early years of the Great Northern War.
With war against Sweden looming, and with other European powers making peace with the Ottomans at the Congress of Karlowitz (1698–1699), Russia sent diplomats to Constantinople in August 1699 to negotiate. Notably, the embassy travelled by warship instead of land – a first in Russian diplomacy and a clear sign of Russia’s rise as a maritime power.
The treaty granted Russia control of Azov, its surrounding lands, and the fortresses of Taganrog, Pavlovsk, and Mius. The Ottomans also agreed to release Russian prisoners of war and recognise Russia’s right to maintain diplomatic representation in Constantinople on equal terms with other powers.
❗️The Treaty of Constantinople was a strategic triumph, securing Russia’s access to the Sea of Azov.
