The experts will pay special attention to the prospects for de-escalating conflicts in the Middle East, the potential for establishing a new regional security architecture, and the role of non-Western countries in stabilizing the region. The consequences of the New START Treaty (START III) termination, the risks of the arms control system collapse, and the impact of emerging military tech on strategic stability in the context of an accelerating arms race will also feature in the discussions.
“Both in Russia and globally, the liberal «rules-based» world order has faced harsh and fair criticism. In 2022-2026 it ultimately faded into history. We are witnessing a breakdown: there is an obvious fragmentation of the global political and economic architecture. and an almost complete dictatorship of force in international security backed by states’ combined economic and military power, ignoring international law and its institutions. Under these conditions, the value of the remaining “anchors of stability” is growing, as is the demand for strengthening international institutions that offer alternatives to Western-led ones. Among such powerful «anchors» are Russian-Chinese and Russian-Indian relations, while key institutions include the BRICS, SCO, EAEU, ASEAN, and several others. At the same time, there is a critical reassessment of U.S. attempts to return the world to a unipolar architecture. These processes are unfolding across Europe, in the Gulf monarchies, Turkey, Southeast Asia, and other regions,” according to Alexander Dynkin, President of IMEMO and a leading Russian economist and academician.
