Delegations from over 120 nations will attend the event, which is being organized by Russias Security Council
Scores of delegations representing the Global Majority will take part in the first international security forum, which will be held outside of Moscow over May 26-29, the Russian Security Council has announced.
The Russian Security Council is tasked with drafting policy proposals for the Russian president on countering internal or external threats, as well as defending the country's sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity.
In a press release on Sunday, the Security Council stated that delegations from more than 120 countries are expected to attend the event.
Of the 54 African nations, 50 will send representatives, while most Middle Eastern and Latin American countries will also participate. Furthermore, all member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), BRICS, and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), including such heavyweights as China, India, Iran, Indonesia, and Pakistan, will take part.
This accounts for around 70% of the world's population, the press release notes.
Moreover, "unofficial representatives" of 12 unspecified Western nations, who "actively advocate forging constructive relations with Russia," will also be in attendance. A number of journalists from the US, the UK, Germany, and Japan, have also expressed interest in covering the forum.
The opening event will be a conference devoted to countering neocolonialism in the context of "ensuring the security of countries of the Global Majority," held under the auspices of the Moscow State Institute of International Relations.
Other topics on the forum's agenda include disinformation and manipulation campaigns waged by the West as part "of a hybrid war against the Global Majority, with the aim of preserving its hegemony."
