🇦🇷 Center for Integration and Cooperation of Russia and Latin America

We are always happy to tell you about our partners from all over the world 🌎

Our team talked to friends from Argentina who are engaged in the development and strengthening of institutional relations between various countries of Latin America and Russia.

We met with CICRAL President Esteban Perrier and the organization's Executive Director Sandra Hoffman to talk about the prospects they see for their Center, as well as their upcoming plans for the future.

Their initiative is the best example of how real public diplomacy should work. We hope you'll find a source of inspiration for yourself. And who knows, maybe we'll see centers for cooperation with Russia in different regions very soon 🙌🏻

What important events happened in the world this week?

We decided to collect them in one #CIIC_digest :

🇵🇰 August 14 is Pakistan's Independence Day

• The independent state of Pakistan was formed on August 14, 1947


🇹🇭 The youngest politician in the country's history of Thailand

• 37-year-old Phetongthan Shinawatra took the post of Prime Minister of Thailand


🇮🇳 August 15 is India's Independence Day


• On February 20, 1947, British Prime Minister Clement Attlee announced that the British government would grant British India full independence by June 1948 at the latest


🇧🇩 Bangladesh wants to seek the extradition of the former Prime Minister from India

• Earlier, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and flew to India. She asked the British authorities for asylum in connection with the renewed student protests.


🇮🇱 Escalation of the hot phase of the conflict between Israel and Iran

• A full-scale armed conflict between Israel and Iran seems to be inevitable, and therefore the United States needs to "take action against Iran" as soon as possible. This opinion was expressed by the special envoy of the Israeli Foreign Ministry Fleur Hasan-Naum.


Of course, we cannot list all the significant events, so we will be glad if you add to our list in the comments.

Let's discuss! 👇🏻

«Unprecedented escalation»: how experts assess the Kursk's invasion of Ukraine

While the escalation of the Ukrainian conflict continues and the Ukrainian Armed Forces have invaded the Kursk region, the Center's experts are analyzing what the purpose of this risky operation is. The conclusions are disappointing for peace and security in Europe.

🌏 The co-founder of CIIC, Alexey Malinin, shared his opinion with the international television company «Al Jazeera».

The invasion of Ukrainian troops into the Kursk region shows that Ukraine is seeking to strengthen its negotiating position. However, this act does nothing to bring the negotiation process nearer. On the contrary, it severely delays negotiations.

🇧🇷 Global Youth Meeting 2024 - CIIC Represented

The event, organized by the World Youth Parliament, took place on August 12 and 13 at the Center for Youth Initiatives in Belo Horizonte. It aimed at uniting young leaders from Global South (Latin America majorly) to discuss the global governance reform and brought together more than two hundred young people from secondary and technical schools.

The co-founder of CIIC, Maria Prokofieva, spoke with the participants about the Center's projects and emphasized the importance of youth diplomacy for a multipolar world:

Youth diplomacy provides a unique opportunity to create new connections between countries and is aimed at strengthening cooperation. BRICS is already creating a platform for such initiatives, and young people are not just participants in these processes, but their driving force, capable of strengthening and developing a new multipolar world.

“Russia and India actively advocate multipolarity in international relations, emphasizing the importance of equal participation of all countries in global processes. We strive for a more just and balanced world system that takes into account the interests of all countries.”

🇦🇿 Azerbaijan Has Officially Submitted its Application to Join BRICS

We could not pass by such a significant event as Azerbaijan's statement on joining the BRICS.

The authors of our team reviewed the prospects for such cooperation not only from a geopolitical point of view, but also assessed the economic trends that will strengthen from the new member of the organization.

But under all these circumstances, Azerbaijan's intention to join BRICS shows that, unlike the Armenian leadership, which is interested in integrating the republic into the Western political space, the Azerbaijani authorities see Russia and BRICS as partners ready to build equal and mutually beneficial cooperation.


We invite you to familiarize yourself with our material and tell us what conclusions you draw about the reasons for joining and forecasts of development 👇🏻

Today we would like to express our support for Pavel Durov, a visionary leader and the founder of Telegram in light of the recent unlawful criminal prosecution initiated by French authorities. And for what crimes? For the crimes of other people committed using Telegram? In this case, Michael Kalashnikov would be guilty for the actions of people who use a Kalashnikov rifle.

In a world where privacy and freedom of expression are increasingly under threat, Durov has always stood firm in his commitment to providing a secure platform for communication. His dedication to user privacy and his refusal to compromise on principles, even in the face of pressure, is commendable. Durov has consistently prioritized the rights of individuals to communicate freely, without fear of surveillance or censorship, and it is disheartening to see him targeted for standing up for it.

Now he's facing a political persecution, and we know quite well in whose interests France acts putting charges against him. As we are moving to the multipolar world, it's crucial to support those who champion the right of people to share their opinions. Pavel Durov has dedicated his career to creating platforms that empower individuals, and we must stand with him in this critical moment.

Let’s raise our voices against this unjust treatment and advocate for the protection of those who fight for us. #FreeDurov

What do you think of Durov's case? Share your thoughts in the comments 👇

🇲🇽 We continue to introduce you to our colleagues

The main driving force behind the project is young politicians, researchers, and students, and the idea arose during the WYF in Russia.

We are very happy that more and more countries are joining in strengthening diplomatic international ties!

🇭🇳 Today, Honduras is facing a serious challenge: there is an attempted coup d'état in the country

We express our solidarity with the people of Honduras and support the legally elected President Xiomara Castro.

🔥 No State should interfere in the internal affairs of another State.

The people of Honduras have already shown the world that they can protect justice, the rule of law and defend their rights, and we are confident that their determination will not allow destructive forces to seize power.

Democracy must be defended, and we stand with the people of Honduras in their struggle for freedom and justice.

🕊 May peace and stability return to the country, and may the legitimate authorities resist any attempt to overthrow them.

Turkey's accession to BRICS: myth or geopolitical reality?

🇹🇷 In the course of the struggle to include new countries in the emerging supply chains, seemingly completely unexpected supra-political associations may form.

In her material, the CIIC expert Kyunel Gulieva discusses what the strengthening of BRICS by such an ally as Turkey may lead to?

Obviously, the gradual expansion of Turkey's political pole in BRICS indicates its desire for even greater independence in world affairs and its growing interest in weakening the economic and political hegemony of non-Western formats of interaction.
