It seems that current US foreign policy revolves around the activities of Anthony Blinken who, if he wants to perform credible diplomacy, should take lessons from Sergey Lavrov, a master of the craft.

taking into account that most of the us government rank in file are inept when it comes to navigating simple unified protocol for communicating ex: cia operation uses cable, fax applications and sms for communications, nsa operation uses dm and sms software dia operation uses internal security phone systems,private email system service and DoS typically only use the phone and internal or external email system for everything. Just to name a few.

If Russia would be run by real russians and not this Muppets show government we wouldn't have this fake war in Ukraine and the USA would have a genuine contender/enemy. But knowing that the trotzkite group from USA detonated USSR in the 90's and installed a transition( a puppet) government all this inteligence service guys can do is lip service and nothing of real value to uphold Russia's ( and by this I mean also the interests of russian people, not only the interest of the small troika that govern them) interests. This is valid also for the eastern european countries that are now used as a battering ram in the long fight for dismembering Russia

Is this person supposed to take over from Sergey Lavrov? What the SVR chief said belongs to the head of diplomatic operations or national leader.

If Russia were to get people oriented the future prospects would look brighter, I feel. For the number of people in all affected countries that desire to go to war with another country over one of these 'intractable' disputes is miniscule.

This 'mistrust between China and India' and such is NOT mistrust between China and India the people - certainly not the point of thousands dying in wars - it is mistrust on the part of politicians and warmongers who's whole careers are built upon fostering, predicating, living with such 'mistrusts'.

Resort to the people would bring an end to almost all strife overnight.

A step towards making this happen would be to give the people a voice.

The dire need for this is illustrated, ironically, by the complete absence of any demand for it from the people's 'guardians', their politicians, their 'leaders', their clerisy: all of whom put themselves above the common people.

We need something like this. As I say, the urgency of the need is demonstrated by the total lack of any demand for it or even suggestion of it. But what is it? It is the 'democracy' we all fondly think we want/love/know/understand/have.

"...the creation of a Eurasian security architecture are admittedly ambitious..."

Something needs to replace NATO:

"My statement on NATO being obsolete and disproportionately too expensive (and unfair) for the U.S. are now, finally, receiving plaudits!"

(recap from above) (Power) vacuums are unstable ('Nature abhors a vacuum.') and therefore potentially dangerous.

I have observed a couple of such vacuums -- they are always dangerous.

Well, Naka, me ole bud, as far as I can see, it looks like the Russians are going to save us from this otherwise imminent danger.

Jeez, you'd have thought the Americans would have had the common sense, dignity and courtesy to at least say, 'Thanks!' wouldn't you?! Oh well, 'pearls before swine' and all that... Looks like they're gradually coming round; Trump could well turn out to be 'just in time'.

At root, the chief danger to the world and its people is the incompetence, malice, and corruption of the pond scum that has floated to the top of western governance. In a corollary observation, it must be said that two months can be a very long time when fools are playing with matches in a fuel depot.

Well, if Russia really wants to distinguish itself from US unipolarity, it needs to withdraw from the UN and its genocidal and anti-human agendas 2030, 2035, and 2050. Russia can't claim to be multi-polar when it follows UN agendas as it does now. That's doublespeak. Why did Russia make a deal with Astra Zeneca to push its toxic sludge on citizens when it has become clear that those vaccines have caused a great deal of death and suffering? The world went through a scamdemic of which Russia and all BRICS followed footstep with the West to force a deadly vaccine on an unsuspecting population. (global holocaust) Russia is still part of the UN and G20, so it's not as multi-polar as one would think.

Russia does hold the moral high ground in its conflict with Ukraine but it has a long way to go before it can call itself distinct form the West. They both have the same dehumanizing doctrines and policies that are anti-human leading to a path of enslavement and loss of all freedom. Both sides don't even try to hide it. They're established policies. lol
