Peskov called Putin’s speech at Valdai “a global event”

The speech of Russian President Vladimir Putin at the plenary session of the annual Valdai Discussion Club will be meaningful and very important. This was stated by presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov.

“Every time this is an event, a global event, everyone watches it with great attention. Of course, this kind of speech at the plenary session of the anniversary annual meeting of Valdai (this is, after all, the 20th meeting) is remarkable in itself. Well, then those international conditions, that international turbulence, the transit transition – all this allows us to expect a very, very meaningful and very important speech by the president. There will be a moderator, with whom President Putin will be on stage. Putin will answer the moderator’s questions,” Peskov said.

This year’s meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club takes place from October 2 to October 5 in Sochi. The theme of the event, according to the information on the website, is “Fair multipolarity: how to ensure security and development for all.” Previously Peskov reportedthat Putin will speak at the Valdai meeting in Sochi on October 5.

In 2022, the Valdai Forum was held from October 24 to 27. The meeting at which Putin spoke took place on the last day of the event. Then he statedthat Russia does not consider itself an enemy of the West and does not challenge its elites.
