... Western sanctions against Russia, despite pressure from its traditional partners. Doha chose a position of neutrality, in line with its long-term foreign policy principle of maintaining dialogue with all sides involved in global processes. Qatar’s diplomacy, traditionally focused on dialogue even between irreconcilable opponents, enabled Doha to act as a mediator on sensitive issues such as the humanitarian exchange between Russia and Ukraine. One of the most striking examples was the reunification of children with their families in March 2025—a ceremony held at the Qatari Embassy in Moscow.

... Russia. This is especially true now that there are no objective preconditions for the emergence of problems between our countries that existed in the middle of the last century. The difficulties that were once inherent in relations between China and Russia came from the internal development of these countries and were not provoked from the outside. There is no need, therefore, to exaggerate the importance of American diplomacy in the 1970s - and especially the role of some inpiduals. At the same time, there is a need to work on building a more solid basis of mutual understanding between Russia and China at the societal level. Prejudices persist in both countries. ...

... European security that gave rise to the Ukraine crisis. Trump has declared that it is desirable to end the conflict in Ukraine, but he is unlikely to want to reach broader agreements with Moscow in terms of European security. Unlike the USSR, Russia is simply not perceived as a party with which new principles can be established on an equal basis or with which Moscow's demands on this issue at the end of 2021 can be seriously taken into account. American diplomacy will probably try to stop the conflict by offering mutual exchanges and concessions. Even if the parties manage to reach such agreements, despite the factors mentioned above, they will be viewed by all participants as a temporary respite and ...

The termination of hybrid wars and their transformation into a hybrid peace is the fundamental problem of modern diplomacy Over the past decade the concept of hybrid warfare has firmly established itself in political rhetoric in the West and in Russia. Russian experts have rightly pointed out the vagueness of the concept, its intersection with other concepts (such as irregular wars), as well as the weak scientific base.
