Lavrov presents Russia's vision for a new security system in Eurasia

Moscow's position on security processes

Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov expressed the view that the Russian capital has formed its own understanding of the structure of a new security system in Eurasia. According to him, such a model must be built taking into account the interests of all interested parties and should not create restrictions for any of them.

Context: European Union reaction

This statement came against the backdrop of previous comments from EU leadership. The day before, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen emphasised that the European Union would not agree to discuss a new European security architecture until a ceasefire agreement is signed in Ukraine.
