Eurasia requires a regional order to help Eurasian states navigate the current global disorder, Belarusian Minister of Foreign Affairs Maksim Ryzhenkov said in his piece for the Russia in Global Affairs journal, dedicated to the Eurasian Charter of Diversity and Multipolarity in the 21st Century, BelTA learned.
“Belarus' initiative to develop a Eurasian Charter of Multipolarity in the 21st century could prove both timely and valuable in this context. As we see it, the Charter could indeed serve as a practical guide for Eurasian states in establishing regional order and, given the supercontinent's global significance, help align Eurasian order with other regions' systems,” the minister stated.
He explained: “Essentially, we view the Charter as a comprehensive and coherent long-term geostrategy encompassing all dimensions: security, economy, science, technology, culture, civilizational aspects and others. Like any strategic document, it must be founded on certain fundamental principles.”
The foreign minister highlighted key provisions: “The Charter must represent a constructive effort since it will not be directed against any specific country or group of states. The Eurasian Charter should be based on the norms and principles of international law as set forth in the UN Charter and other binding international legal instruments. Moreover, the Charter must remain a ‘local’ process – an undertaking exclusively involving Eurasian countries, as local actors understand their own interests best, as they can define common objectives and the means to achieve them, and then effectively implement jointly assumed commitments."
Maksim Ryzhenkov further emphasized that the Charter must be collectively developed and discussed by Eurasian states.
