New trends in the formation of the international information security system in Asia

Russia has traditionally supported open, inclusive mechanisms related to ensuring international information security in the Asia-Pacific region. Against this background, the creation of a number of block-by-nature structures based on the so-called "Indo-Pacific concept", in particular Quad and AUKUS, calls into question the possibility of jointly countering threats to the security of ICTs and ICTs themselves, which contradicts the interests of all countries in the region, including Russia.

Notes of an intourist

Diplomats abroad are certainly subject to the embassy routine. But the main thing is that they study the host countries. Deeply: and the mechanisms of power, and its creators, and politics, and economics, and culture. In general, everything. But sometimes tourists may know more about the particulars. If they are lucky with guides. And also, if they can compare the stories of the guides with their own knowledge. I want to share some of them. Will they suddenly come in handy?
