MOSCOW. Nov 3 (Interfax) – The World Russian People’s Assembly sees Russia as the main guarantor of the multipolar world.

“It is Russia that plays the role of key guarantor of the multipolar world, restraining the ambitions of those who claim the role of global domination,” it said in the final document of its congress held in Moscow.

Also, there is every reason to consider Russia “the global stronghold of traditional family values, that keeps rebuffing the aggressive preaching of immorality and legalization of a growing range of sinful deeds, it said.

An incessant economic race and continuing struggle for resources are pushing mankind from one military conflict to another, “all of which may ultimately end up in a confrontation between civilizations.”

“In such a setting, people and life itself are prompting us to create a society sealed by solidarity. The creative efforts being made by the Russian intellectual class and by our humanitarian and administrative elite, must be channeled into a search for social, economic and political mechanisms that will direct development towards public solidarity, excluding the permanent conflict and forced suppression of individual activity,” the document says.

Consolidated around the basic values, the moral majority has every right to create its own social model on their basis, “disregarding attacks from the aggressive minority, who deny the ideals and values, guided by their exclusive intellectual and spiritual pride,” it says.

“This social model should rest on responses to the challenges of inequality and social injustice, demonstrating our ability to overcome them as we implement the idea of a social state and enhance citizens’ living standards,” it said.

The World Russian People’s Assembly is an international public organization, set up in 1993. Its meetings are attended by representatives of all branches of authority, public organizations and law enforcement agencies, by the supreme leaders of Russia’s traditional religions, teachers and students, scientists and cultural figures. It is headed by the Russian patriarch.
