Crises happen not because the law is faulty, but because of attempts to replace law with dictate,\u00bb or when certain states or groups of states try to replace international standards with their own national jurisdiction. This, he stated, \u00abis a deliberate refusal to follow essential legal principles\u2014justice, conscientiousness, equality and humanity. These are not just legal ideals, but values that reflect the diversity of our civilization.\u00bb<br><br>The Russian President warned that the multipolar world of the 21st Century \u00abis an irreversible process; it is happening before our eyes\u2026this democratic, more just world order should be built on the basis of mutual respect and trust, and, of course, on the generally accepted principles of international law and the UN Charter.\u00bb In this new, multipolar world, there is no room for discrimination against states or people. Russia, therefore, \u00abspeaks for the practical realization of the pivotal international legal principle of the sovereign equality of states and the right of each state to pursue its own development model. I am confident that by consistently following international law and joining our efforts, it is possible to resolve the most difficult problems that the world is facing and to provide for the stable, sustainable and progressive development of all states.\u00bb &nbsp;Access to <a href=\"http:\/\/en.kremlin.ru\/events\/president\/news\/68785\">President Putin\u2019s speech is here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>June 30, 2022 (EIRNS)\u2014In a pre-recorded video message, Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the Tenth St. Petersburg International Legal Forum today, contrasting the \u00abgenerally accepted principles of international law and the UN Charter,\u00bb which underlie an emerging multipolar system of international relations, with the \u00abunjust unipolar model\u00bb based on an \u00aborder based on rules and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":88935,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[505,639,660],"tags":[842],"class_list":["post-88934","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-updates","category-global-diplomacy","category-russia","tag-lang-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88934","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/37"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88934"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88934\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":88945,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88934\/revisions\/88945"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/88935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88934"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88934"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/schillerinstitute.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88934"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
