Common security and equal opportunities for development in the 21st century.' The Valdai Club is almost the same age as our century, and it celebrated already 20 years. These two decades were not just full of crucial, and quite often dramatic events of truly historical scale: before our eyes a completely novel world order is taking shape, and it is unlike everything we know from the past. New powers are emerging. Nations understand more clearly their interests, their self-worth, uniqueness and identity. Source: Kremlin. News
