Stronger ties between Russia and Muslim nations augur well for a world that has seen problems associated with US hegemony, according to religious, cultural and political leaders who attended the Russian-Islamic World Strategic Vision Group’s three-day forum at the Jeddah Conference Palace. “The first eight years of the 21st century have shown us how a world dominated by one superpower can be dangerous. These eight years have demonstrated that problems cannot be solved by a brute show of force,” said Veniamin Popove, director of the Russian Center for Partnership of Civilizations. He noted that Saudi Arabia has been specially invited for this crucial summit of 20 that will discuss the fallout of the global economic crisis. This proves the fact that the Islamic world has arrived on the world stage. He added that the Jeddah forum discussed issues that kept Russia and the Islamic world at bay in the past.
