The program included two key sessions:

  • “Middle Eastern Policies of the U.S. and China”

Experts discussed the involvement of global powers in regional affairs, the specifics of China’s policy, and the impact of Russian-Turkish relations on the dynamics in the Middle East.

  • “What Role Can Russia and Turkey Play in the Reconstruction of Syria?”

The discussion focused on the Syrian issue within the context of bilateral relations, as well as the challenges and prospects for regional cooperation.

The seminar brought together leading experts from IMEMO, the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, MGIMO University, and the Institute of Asian and African Studies at Moscow State University.
