Eurasian countries are forming a new world majority that upholds just and universal principles, Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov said on December 6. Ushakov was speaking at the first day of the Primakov Readings Forum in Moscow, entitled “World Order in Transit: the Eurasian Dimension.” “[You] can already say that a new powerful, constructive force is taking shape on Eurasian soil, what can be called the world majority, which defends just and universal principles and approaches,” said Ushakov, who currently chairs the Forum.
Ushakov noted that these approaches and principles are quite consistent with the interests of vast regions, such as Africa and Latin America, which also do not tolerate modern forms of neocolonialism or the world order based on “rules determined by whomever” (the Western concept of rules-based order).
