Kyrgyzstan's priorities in the UN Security Council meet Russia's interests, said Kirill Lugbinov, director of the International Organizations Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry. The positions of the two countries coincide on the vast majority of issues, and the day before, diplomats, so to speak, synchronized in consultation at the level of the relevant departments. One of their common themes is sanctions and their legality. Logbinov noted that such restrictions harm the socio-economic development of countries in the Global South, interfere with their internal affairs and undermine the resolution of crises. Kyrgyzstan faced restrictions from the US, the UK and the European Union - the Kyrgyz president, Sadir Jafarov, has already stated that he intends to request reform at the UN and the cancellation of these measures.
