Russia's permanent representative to the OSCE, Alexander Lukashevich, told TASS Moscow is going to present its own outlook at the entire spectrum of relations in the sphere of security from the NATO sprawl to peace settlement of the armed conflict in Ukraine.
Alexei Meshkov is to take the floor at the session in the first half of the day on Tuesday.
The Military and Political Bloc
"The conference has been specially defined as the main forum for reviewing the full spectrum of security problems along three dimensions of the OSCE," Lukashevich said. "Quite naturally, the military and political dimension comes first and it certainly embraces international terrorism, drugs trafficking and trading in people, among other things."
He indicated the Russian delegation's plans to point out the concerns Moscow has developed in the wake of NATO's activity in its eastern flank near the Russian borders.
"This undermines gravely the foundation of European security," Lukashevich said. "OSCE can't stand aside and evade discussions of the problem."
Reports and speeches the Russian representatives are going to make will also take up the problem of the range of threats the OSCE as a pan-European organization should deal with, including the cross border and multinational threats coming out of Afghanistan and some other countries adjoining it.
"That's also the problem of borders," Lukashevich said. "Apparently it's an international or even a global problem linked to the migration crisis in Europe."
