Russian MP urges Russia to strengthen interaction with Central Asia
By Trend
Russia must change its foreign policy in the direction of increasing interaction with the countries of Central Asia, the leader of Russia's LDPR faction Vladimir Zhirinovsky said within the “hour of statements”.
He reminded that as early as in 2001, he called for improving relations primarily with the CIS countries, but 17 years had passed since then and the foreign policy still had not changed, Podrobno.uz reported.
“I agree that it is possible to travel to all countries of the world, to establish relations with all countries,” Zhirinovsky said. “But the main direction is South-East: Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Turkmenistan.”
