"La prioridad principal es establecer el contacto, y en segundo lugar hay que analizar cosas que hayan pasado que subrayan la necesidad de un diálogo; si por ejemplo analizamos cómo se vota en la Asamblea General de la ONU, muy a menudo los países en desarrollo cuando se abstienen subrayan la importancia de una visión alternativa a lo que hay en el Norte (desarrollado) y eso es lo que quiero traer al entendimiento ruso"

"Uruguay es un país cuyas relaciones con el imperio ruso, la Unión Soviética y la nueva Rusia y la flamante región euroasiática ha tomado el rol de punta de lanza"

This new format was initially envisaged and organized by the Ministry of International Business, Government of Grenada, and the Bering-Bellingshausen Institute for the Americas (“IBBA”) (Montevideo, Uruguay), an NGO founded by South American and Russian journalists, which has successfully carried out such events in Argentina, Chile, Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, Venezuela and Uruguay. From Russia proper it is now supported by its Foreign Ministry, Roscongress (the operator of the prestigious St Petersburg International Economic Forum), the Gorchakov Foundation, Moscow Institute for Latin American Studies, St Petersburg and Kazan Federal Universities and such leading Russian media outlets as Russia-24, Izvestia, Kommesant and The Russian Gazette.

‘A New Dawn 2017’ is the first ever discussion platform devoted to open dialogue between representatives from Russia/Eurasia and the countries of the Caribbean Basin. The Forum will take place from November 1 to 3, 2017 in Grenada on the sidelines of the country’s chairmanship of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), and to mark the fact that, in 2017, Grenada became the first nation in the region to open an embassy in Moscow.

The third ‘Russia and Ibero-America in a Globalizing World: History and Modernity’ international forum has drawn to a close. The event was attended by some 500 representatives of scientific, expert, and political circles from more than 30 countries.
