[Regnum] Russia considers it necessary to calculate the damage that was caused to various countries due to the colonial policies of the West, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said on February 16 at the forum “For the Freedom of Nations.”
The Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council also noted that former colonial empires still think in the logic of their own exclusivity and cling to the ghosts of the past. Medvedev also drew attention to the fact that the United States is trying to subjugate everyone to its will, but alone is not able to win the global battle. Therefore, Washington continues to involve its satellites in the implementation of neocolonial policies and place the main burden of all costs on them, he concluded. As Regnum reported, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in his greeting to the international forum “For the Freedom of Nations,” said that colonial policy should have remained a shameful page of the past, but the West is still trying to resort to similar practices. Aggressive manifestations of colonial policy are occurring today in attempts by the collective West to maintain its dominance and dominance by any means, to economically subjugate other countries, deprive them of sovereignty, and impose foreign values and cultural traditions, the Russian President emphasized. The Forum “For the Freedom of Nations,” which takes place in Moscow, was organized on the initiative of United Russia; the meeting of the organizing committee took place in November 2023. The party’s proposal was supported by President Vladimir Putin, and the Russian Foreign Ministry provided support for the event. It is expected that the forum will be held twice a year. | |
