The place and role of Russia in the modern world

Ambassador Logvinov will share the Russian perspective on the changing nature of the current world order. He will touch upon important issues of the so called “rules-based world”, and the East-West relationship, especially between Russia, the USA, and China. He will detail Russia's contribution toward achieving international peace and global and regional stability.
His Excellency will also look back at the historic events of the 1938 Munich Agreement that represent a classic example of the potential impacts of disregarding international law, believing in one's own exceptionalism and infallibility, and reliance on national egotism.
Ambassador Logvinov will be open for any questions including the most acute, sensitive and uncomfortable.
