On November 10, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation G.E. Borisenko received the Deputy Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) for Political Affairs Youssef Al-Dubai, who is in Moscow to participate in the International Forum on Collective Security.
During the conversation, the dynamic nature of the development of relations between Russia and the OIC was noted, and the mutual commitment to continue strengthening them in various fields was confirmed, including the expansion of political dialogue and increased interaction on the economic, cultural and humanitarian levels.
In addition, there was a "synchronization of clocks" on key issues on the international and Middle East agenda, with an emphasis on the escalation of tensions in the Persian Gulf region and the Palestinian-Israeli settlement issue.
The lack of an alternative to resolving existing differences and crises was emphasized solely through political and diplomatic means based on international law and taking into account the interests of all the countries involved in the region.
