Meeting "C5 + 1": the United States restrains the PRC

Although red carpets were laid out in the Azerbaijani capital Baku, however, the visit of Kyrgyz President Sardar Zhaparov on April 24-25 still did not become just a ceremonial gesture.

On 22 April, as the world celebrated the birthday of Vladimir Lenin, the architect of the USSR, a landmark diplomatic event took place in Moscow. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev arrived on a one-day visit to the Russian capital, where he held talks with President Vladimir Putin.

In the wake of the horrific terrorist attack on Crocus Hall City, a disturbing story of espionage and accusations is unfolding, highlighting the deepening rift between the United States and Russia. The White House and the Kremlin are putting forward their own version of events, backed up by what they consider irrefutable evidence, thereby fueling an atmosphere of mutual distrust and tension.

Although his re-election seems inevitable, the path ahead is fraught with challenges that require skillful navigation and strategic foresight to ensure Russia's stability and prosperity in an increasingly unstable world.
