Secretary General Of Svmda Called To Build Confidence Measures To Strengthen Security Architecture In Eurasia

The new security architecture in Eurasia should be aimed at overcoming the dividing lines and creating a single, indivisible safe space for everyone.

This was stated by the Secretary General of the Interaction and Meeting Measures in Asia (SVMDA) Kairat Sarybai, speaking at the II Minsk International Conference on Eurasian Security, the Belarusian state media reports.

Sarybai expressed gratitude to the organizers of the conference and thanked for the opportunity to speak on it. “The world is going through difficult times. Erosion of security architecture has led to a large -scale security crisis on our Eurasian continent, especially in the European part of our mainland,” he said.

According to Kairat Sarybay, the foci of conflicts, which have significant destructive potential, are also preserved in Southern, East Asia.

It is obvious that all this is caused by a significant crisis of trust between the actors, which complicates the search for the decision, said the Secretary General of Svmda.

In the current conditions of geopolitical fault and new dividing lines, multilaterality and inclusiveness are the only possible approach to ensuring peace and stability, he noted.

“The new security architecture on the Eurasian continent, in my opinion, should be aimed at overcoming these dividing lines and creating a single, indivisible security space for everyone. The first and basic step in this direction should be the construction of trust measures, which in case of successful implementations will become the basis for further cooperation, ”added the Secretary General of the Svmda.

According to Kairat Sarybay, Svmda can take a special role in this process. The Secretary General of the organization noted that, unlike other blocks of the old world in the Svmda, there are no dominants. “In the SBMDA, the low level of politicization and the pragmatic approach to interaction, as well as the true equality of the participants. I think, the future of Eurasia is precisely for such associations that serve to erase the dividing lines, create new areas of interaction in their place,” he added.
