The last session of the first day of the Valdai Club Middle East Conference was devoted to the collective security system in the Middle East. If earlier, when speaking of “military diplomacy” in the region, the experts focused on the present, and later turned to the past; now they were talking about the future. It is quite likely that the future will be better, because, as the speakers agreed, the present situation is too bad.

via Moscow Exchange: Main news http://moex.com/en February 20, 2019 at 11:15AM The President of Russia is delivering his Address to the Federal Assembly. The ceremony is taking place in Gostiny Dvor. 
Attending the presentation of the Address are Federation Council members, State Duma deputies, members of the Government, leaders of the Constitutional Court and Supreme Court, and governors. * * * President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Members of the Federation Council, State Duma deputies, citizens of Russia, Today’s Address is primarily devoted to matters of domestic social and economic development. I would like to focus on the objectives set forth in the May 2018 Executive Order and detailed in the national projects. Their content and the targets they set are a reflection of the demands and expectations of Russia’s citizens. People are at the core of the national projects, which are designed to bring about a new quality of life for all generations. This can only be achieved by generating momentum in Russia’s development. These are long-term objectives that we have set for ourselves. However, work to achieve these strategic goals has to begin today. Time is always in short supply, as I have already said on numerous occasions, and you all know this all too well. There is simply no time for getting up to speed or making any adjustments. All in all, I believe that we have already completed the stage of articulating objectives and outlining tools for achieving our goals. Departing from the targets that were outlined would be unacceptable. It is true that these are challenging objectives. That being said, lowering the requirements for specific targets or watering them down is not an option. As I have already said, these are formidable challenges that require us to undertake major efforts. However, they are in step with the scale and pace of global change. It is our duty to keep pushing ahead and gaining momentum. To be continued. via Website of the President of Russia http://en.kremlin.ru/ February 20, 2019 at 10:24AM
The second session of the Valdai Club Middle East Conference “Middle East: New Stage, Old Problems?” was devoted to the post-war reconstruction of Syria and the return of refugees. According to experts, the problems connected with the restoration of Syria are much greater than in case of other Middle Eastern states recently affected by civil wars or foreign military interventions.

Almost eight years have passed since the outbreak of the conflict in Syria that has drawn into its orbit an unprecedented number of regional and extra-regional actors and launched a process of reformatting the structures of formal and informal, hierarchical and network interrelations and coalitions in Western Asia. A fundamental change took place in the Syrian confrontation at a certain point, primarily owing to the actions of the Russian Federation.

The message reads, in part: “Year after year, the farming sector has been playing an increasingly prominent role in enhancing the potential of Russia’s agriculture, improving the quality of life in rural areas and driving regional and national economic development. Working in all sectors of agriculture, farmers preserve and build up the best traditions of Russian farming, showing diligence, creativity and leadership. They are proactive in introducing the most advanced technology, expanding output and farmlands, and making products to the highest international standards. It is with great satisfaction that I note that these outstanding results were largely achieved through AKKOR’s diligent and constructive efforts to bring farmers together around common goals, objectives and interests. Let me emphasise that the government will step up its support to the farming sector, accompany it on the way to becoming more competitive and promote the most effective forms of cooperative agriculture.” via Website of the President of Russia http://en.kremlin.ru/ February 19, 2019 at 09:38AM
In the absence of any political change or agreement, Syria is unlikely to witness large-scale funding given the abstention of most donor countries from allocating the amounts needed to launch the reconstruction. Therefore, it would be preferable to adopt a smaller-scale, yet more realistic and efficient policy by encouraging the creation of specialized funds for specific sectors and activities, focusing mainly on agriculture, manufacturing and construction at the expense of tourism.

Russia’s obsession with a potential alliance with China was already obvious at the Valdai Discussion Club, an annual gathering of Russia’s biggest foreign policy minds, in 2017.
via Analytics http://valdaiclub.com February 19, 2019 at 07:33AM The meeting that became a logical continuation of the work of the parties in the framework of resolving existing issues in terms of mutual deliveries of agricultural products was held today in Moscow. The event was also attended by representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Economic Development. During a constructive dialogue the parties agreed on the need to develop a clear and understandable mechanism for regulating the transit of agricultural products across the territories of the EAEU member countries. It was emphasized that the reluctance of the EAEU Commission represented by Mr. Nazarenko to resolve such issues leads to a significant slowdown in the countries’ integration process and also complicates import and export operations. Due to lack of clear control over the transit of products prohibited for deliveries to Russia from Belarus, such goods are regularly unloaded as they are transported to other EAEU member countries in the territory of Russia. For example, dry milk temporarily restricted for import into Russia "dissolves" when moving through the territory of our country and is used for the manufacture of falsified products, which are subsequently sold on the Russian market. The parties also stressed the need for the earliest development at the level of the EAEU Commission of a procedure governing the introduction of self-restrictions by countries - suppliers of products on establishments that supply poor quality and/or unsafe products to the EU country-member. If such a procedure is implemented, Belarus can independently impose restrictions on the establishments that supplied products to Russia, which, based on laboratory tests, did not comply with the veterinary and sanitary requirements. In this regard Sergey Dankvert informed his colleagues about the intention of the Service to send to First Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation - Minister of Finance Anton Siluanov, as well as Minister of Agriculture of the Russian Federation Dmitry Patrushev and Minister of Economic Development Maxim Oreshkin a letter about Mr.Nazarenko ignoring repeated appeals of the Rosselkhoznadzor to work through the above raised issues at the EEC level. The Belarusian side stressed that it is interested in resolving the current situation and is ready to provide assistance to the Rosselkhoznadzor in this respect. During the talks the Russian side handed over to the Belarusian colleagues extensive materials containing information on incompliances detected in the Rosselkhoznadzor laboratories in products coming from Belarus to Russia. In response Mr. Smilgin promised to study thoroughly the information received and take appropriate measures against the incompliant establishments. During the meeting, the parties reviewed in detail the restrictions imposed earlier by the services of the two countries, as well as measures taken by the parties to make the production process aligned with the requirements. As a result of the meeting the parties signed a roadmap on the procedure for removing mutual restrictive measures for the supply of livestock products for 2019. According to the document, from February 14 temporary restrictions on product deliveries to Russia are lifted from the following Belarusian establishments: - Volozhinsky production site of OAO “Molodechnensky Dairy Farm (cheese and butter); - IP "INCO-FOOD" (finished meat products). However the products of these companies shall be imported into Russia under stricter laboratory control.

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Good afternoon. Let us start with last year’s performance results. Rostelecom President Mikhail Oseyevsky: Mr President, last year the company started implementing the new five-year strategy that will transform Rostelecom into a digital company working for the benefit of the population, business and the government alike. That is why we are now switching from the traditional services provided by telecom companies, such as transmission and storage of data, to a whole complex of modern digital services, while staying focused on developing the basic infrastructure. Last year, we used our own investment programme to wire up a total of more than one million new apartments and private homes so that people could make use of all the latest improvements right away. We are continuing work on the programme to provide internet access to remote communities. Last year, in accordance with your instructions, we laid an undersea cable to the Kuril Islands, and today, residents of the three islands of Iturup, Kunashir and Shikotan can access the same services as Sakhalin, and, importantly, at the same rates. We are now actively working on these islands, and planning to complete the process of connecting homes, social facilities and businesses to the internet during the first quarter. This is, without a doubt, of great importance to people living so far away from the centre. To be continued. via Website of the President of Russia http://en.kremlin.ru/ February 18, 2019 at 01:30PM
