Security in Eurasia: From Concept to Practice. Opening and Session 1
On December 9, 2025, the Valdai Discussion Club held a conference titled “Security in Eurasia: From Concept to Practice.” The event brought together more than 40 participants from India, Iran, Kazakhstan, China, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, and Russia. The first session addressed questions related to the conceptual framework of Eurasian security, featuring a presentation by the Valdai Discussion Club dedicated to this topic. The initiative to establish a Eurasian security architecture has become one of the key priorities in Russian foreign policy. Given the significant interest it has garnered both abroad and within Russia, there is a need to conceptualize the idea, clarify its fundamental concepts and meanings. This entails considering the origins and prerequisites of its emergence and outlining prospects for its further development. Equally important is the perception of this initiative by Russia's key international partners. The first session will address questions related to the conceptual framework of Eurasian security, featuring a presentation by the Valdai Discussion Club dedicated to this topic.
