Russia and the Muslim world: a strategy of cooperation
...
Ambassador Veniamin Popov, who represents Russia in the Organization of the Islamic Conference, believes that many recent international forums are refuting Samuel Huntington's theory of a clash between civilizations, but are not going any further. At some meetings, spokesmen for the West are trying to impose their values on Muslims. In the meantime, Russia suggests drafting "new principles of equal dialogue based on mutual respect."
This dialogue should rest on the premise that "there are no superior or inferior civilizations; they are all equal, because they have made the same contribution to world development," and that political conflicts should always be settled through compromise rather than by force.
Popov mentioned the 1928 Kellogg-Briand pact (named for the U.S. secretary of state and the French foreign minister) on renunciation of war as an instrument of settling international disputes and pursuing national policy. He recalled that the pact signed by more than 50 countries has never been implemented, and probably, it is time to revive this idea.
