Kyiv, December 9 (Xinhua) — The latest version of the plan to end the Russian-Ukrainian armed conflict, approved at talks in Florida, will be finalized by national security advisers from Ukraine and European countries. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this, Interfax-Ukraine reported Monday evening.

According to him, the document is expected to be ready on Tuesday evening, after which it will be sent to the United States.

V. Zelenskyy also noted that Kyiv wants reliable security guarantees from Washington. However, for them to be legally binding, they must be approved by the US Congress. The US "has a positive attitude toward this move so far," the Ukrainian president noted.

Last week, another round of peace plan talks between Ukrainian and American delegations took place in Florida. These were the first talks between the two countries since the meeting in Moscow between US Presidential Envoy Steven Witkoff and the White House's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Moscow, December 9 (Xinhua) — The military-political situation in the Arctic region remains challenging and is deteriorating, Russian Navy Commander-in-Chief Alexander Moiseyev said at the International Forum "Arctic: Present and Future," which is being held in St. Petersburg from Tuesday to Wednesday.

"I must note that the situation in the Arctic region remains challenging and is deteriorating. Instead of discussions about cooperation in the Arctic, we increasingly hear the opposite, including that the Arctic is a region of potential future conflict," he said.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy emphasized that Western countries are increasing their military presence in the Arctic and stepping up efforts to hinder Russia's economic activity in the region. "The military-political situation in the region is characterized by a growing potential for conflict, driven by intensified competition between leading powers for access to the Arctic Ocean's natural resources, as well as for control over strategic maritime and air communications," he stated.

A. Moiseyev expressed hope that the new US National Security Strategy, published on December 6, will change the approaches of the United States and its allies to the development of the Arctic and the transition from confrontation to partnership. –0–

UNITED NATIONS, Dec. 9 (Xinhua) — China's permanent representative to the United Nations Fu Cong on Monday called for practicing multilateralism and ensuring common security, speaking at a Security Council briefing organized by the chairman-in-office of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).

He noted that the global security situation continues to deteriorate: geopolitical conflicts are intensifying, hotbeds of tension are flaring up more frequently, unilateralism and protectionism are significantly increasing, and traditional and non-traditional security threats are becoming intertwined.

In this context, it is crucial that the UN and regional organizations, including the OSCE, continue to strengthen cooperation and make adequate contributions to maintaining international peace and security, Fu Cong said.

"In the current circumstances, it is important for the international community to champion the concept of common, comprehensive, cooperative, and sustainable security," the diplomat noted. He called on the international community to "promote global security governance and strive to achieve universal security."

The international community should practice true multilateralism, abide by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and firmly support the international system with the UN at its core, Fu Cong emphasized.

He also called on the international community to maintain dialogue and consultation, jointly reject the Cold War mentality and bloc confrontation, promote peace talks and engage in mediation based on the needs and will of the countries concerned, and encourage the parties to the conflict to build trust, resolve disputes and strengthen security through dialogue.

He described China's position on the Ukrainian crisis as consistent and crystal clear. "Dialogue and negotiations are the only viable path to resolving the Ukrainian crisis," Fu Cong noted, adding that China calls on all parties involved to contribute to the development of a balanced, effective, and sustainable European security architecture.

Denis Manturov spoke at a meeting of the Federation Council Committee on Economic Policy.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov participated in a meeting of the Federation Council Committee on Economic Policy, chaired by Committee Chairman Andrei Kutepov.

The First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the particular importance of constant attention to industrial development issues and noted the effective interaction between the Government and senators.

"For our core industries, achieving technological sovereignty and technological leadership is a strategic objective. This is the focus of a set of national projects, the implementation of which was discussed in detail yesterday at a meeting with the President. In addition to providing key economic and social sectors with essential products, the national projects define priorities for the entire industry. This involves technologically upgrading enterprises' fixed assets and training them to develop new, qualified personnel. The combination of these factors is a prerequisite for increasing labor productivity," said Denis Manturov.

Another emphasis was placed on the need to increase public and corporate investment in research and development. Developing the potential of small technology companies requires more active involvement of universities in the industrial agenda.

Furthermore, the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the priority of expanding public-private partnerships for the most capital-intensive industrial projects. This format is particularly in demand for large-scale initiatives to develop and deeply process mineral resources, and produce strategic materials and critical components.

"All of the outlined areas are key elements of Russia's state industrial policy. I particularly emphasize the fundamental role of our regions in its implementation. Over the past decade, the federal subjects have significantly strengthened their industrial infrastructure. This includes the creation and development of industrial and technology parks, the funding of regional industrial development funds, and the implementation of preferential regimes at our own level. We will certainly continue to monitor these issues, providing support to the federal subjects," said Denis Manturov.
