On the final day of their working trip, Russian experts engaged in lively debate where they discussed the potential for Russia-Turkey cooperation within BRICS and the SCO, as well as prospects for humanitarian collaboration.
🔵Institute of Strategic Thinking (SDE)
The institute hosted an expert discussion on Russian-Turkish cooperation. Participants examined the transformation of global governance institutions and Turkey's prospects following its status as a BRICS partner.
Next, at the Russian Center for Science and Culture (RCSC), a meeting took place where Russian and Turkish experts explored the issues of humanitarian cooperation between the two nations. They discussed the current state and future development of cultural, educational, and scientific ties. Additionally, specialists from the Primakov Center presented their projects aimed at fostering bilateral dialogue.
Finally, our delegation's suitcases brimmed with Turkish delights and pastila, threatening to exceed baggage limits. It seems that upon returning home, there will not only be meeting reports to share but also a tasting of Turkish delicacies!

Apparently upbeat developments in Russia's discussions with Ukraine helped at least temporarily send investors back into risk assets. Russian President Vladimir Putin said during a meeting with his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko that there were "certain positive developments" occurring in the talks with Ukraine, according to a transcript of their meeting. Putin added that discussions were happening "almost on a daily basis." "There are several million Russians who can lift their head up from propaganda and try to look for other sources, and I'd say that most look for it on Telegram," he said. There was another possible development: Reuters also reported that Ukraine said that Belarus could soon join the invasion of Ukraine. However, the AFP, citing a Pentagon official, said the U.S. hasn’t yet seen evidence that Belarusian troops are in Ukraine. Right now the digital security needs of Russians and Ukrainians are very different, and they lead to very different caveats about how to mitigate the risks associated with using Telegram. For Ukrainians in Ukraine, whose physical safety is at risk because they are in a war zone, digital security is probably not their highest priority. They may value access to news and communication with their loved ones over making sure that all of their communications are encrypted in such a manner that they are indecipherable to Telegram, its employees, or governments with court orders. Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred."
