Putin's global security plan | Russian President Vladimir Putin laid out his proposal for a new Eurasian security architecture founded on Moscow's deepening entente with Beijing to challenge the post-Cold War order in Europe dominated by the US and its allies. Russia's goal is to ensure “indivisible security and development to replace the outdated Euro-centric and Euro-Atlantic models which gave unilateral advantages to individual countries,” Putin said at a security summit in Astana, Kazakhstan, on Thursday. Putin spoke a day after holding talks in Astana with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who reaffirmed Beijing's position on the invasion despite growing Western frustration over its perceived support for Moscow's war efforts.
