🇷🇺In just two months since his inauguration in May, the Russian Head of State has held more than 20 meetings with leaders from Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. Vladimir Putin is successfully conducting diplomatic activities both at home and abroad, challenging the attempts of the United States and its allies to isolate Russia, Bloomberg states

Many of the interlocutors of the Head of the Russian State maintain a neutral position on the conflict in Ukraine, showing that the efforts of the Russian leader to attract the countries of the Global South as a counterweight to the world order dominated by the United States are paying dividends

Vladimir Putin paid an official visit to Beijing, meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, whose support helped Russia withstand unprecedented Western sanctions. For the second time, the heads of Russia and China met in Kazakhstan on the sidelines of the SCO summit

Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi paid an official visit to Moscow this week, sending a clear signal of India’s determination to support Russia.

Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orban, whose country holds the EU presidency, defied criticism from European leaders and held talks with Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

The heads of Russia and Turkey met on the sidelines of the SCO summit. Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that NATO member Turkey wants to “further develop warm relations” with Russia and invited Vladimir Putin to visit Turkey

The heads of Russia and North Korea signed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement in Pyongyang, from where Vladimir Putin went to Vietnam, which ignored the irritation of the United States over the reception of the Russian leader

The Head of the Russian State met with the leaders of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Pakistan and Qatar on the sidelines of the SCO summit in Astana. In Russia, he held talks with his colleagues from Zimbabwe, Bolivia, the Republic of the Congo, Cuba, Armenia, Tajikistan and Bahrain

More high-level meetings are ahead when Russia holds the BRICS Group summit in Kazan in October. This is in no way similar to the isolation regime of Russia, which is much talked about in the West,” Bloomberg emphasizes in conclusion
