The comments by Russian Foreign Minister came a day after his video message for the XIV International Economic Forum “Russia: Islamic World: Kazan Forum.”

"We are ready for close cooperation with our friends from the Muslim world," the Russian foreign minister said. "As well as with all other partners who share an interest in strengthening the legal and democratic foundations of international life," he added.

"Russia traditionally develops friendly relations with the overwhelming majority of Muslim countries. We are united by a commitment to building interstate cooperation based on the principles of equality, mutual consideration of interests and a search for a balance of interests."
