At the IV Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security, a vision was presented on how the continent's security system should function under modern conditions. According to First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kyrgyzstan Asein Isaev, current international mechanisms are not meeting the expectations of the global community.
Main Challenges and Security Principles
During his speech, the official emphasized that the world order formed after World War II is undergoing a profound crisis of trust and is failing to cope with new threats. Eurasia is currently at the epicenter of large-scale transformations.
- Armed conflicts and terrorism
- Vulnerability of critical infrastructure
- Climate change affecting water, food, and energy security
Four Pillars of the New Architecture
To form a stable security system in Eurasia, Kyrgyzstan proposes relying on the following fundamental principles:
- Inclusivity
- Economic indivisibility
- Responsibility for fulfilling international obligations
- Preventive diplomacy
"Existing mechanisms for ensuring global and regional security, established by international institutions, have fallen short of the global community's expectations. Armed conflicts on the planet are expanding, and the world order established after World War II is losing its effectiveness in the face of modern challenges and demonstrating a profound crisis of trust."
It was also noted that Kyrgyzstan is interested in the joint initiative of Russia and Belarus to create an Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century. This document is viewed as a platform for open dialogue and finding ways to resolve disagreements.
