MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The international situation is featured by growing instability, with new hotbeds of tension expanding and emerging in different regions, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday.
Russia will strengthen ties with the countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America in every possible way, Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated.
"We highly appreciate the fact that Russia has many partners in different regions and on different continents. We sincerely value historically strong, friendly, truly trusting ties with the states of Asia, Africa and Latin America. And we will strengthen them in every possible way," Putin said in a video address to an international meeting of high representatives in charge of security issues taking place in the Moscow region.
The president also expressed confidence that Russia and its allies will achieve the formation of a more just world, while the discriminatory model of development will irreversibly go away.

Vladimir Putin noted that the international situation is featured by growing instability, with new hotbeds of tension expanding and emerging in different regions.
"We see that the current international situation is characterized by increasing instability. In different regions, the former ones are expanding and new hotbeds of tension are emerging," Putin argued.
This is largely due to the desire of individual states to maintain their dominance, completely ignoring the sovereignty and interests of other countries, the president said.
"All this is accompanied by a buildup of military potential, a show of force, unceremonious interference in the affairs of independent countries, as well as attempts to extract unilateral advantages from the energy and food crises provoked by the United States and a number of Western states," Putin said.

"I have said more than once and I will emphasize again: our country is ready for the closest interaction with all interested states in confronting common threats, common challenges that humanity faces today," Putin said.
