World faces most fragile security moment since World War Two, RIA cites Russian spy chief
The fragility of world security is unmatched since World War Two, requiring willingness to compromise to avoid a new global conflict, Russia's RIA agency cited Sergei Naryshkin, head of Russia's SVR intelligence service, as saying on Tuesday.
"The world is now experiencing the most fragile moment for international security since World War Two, namely a period of qualitative transformation of the global order," RIA cited Naryshkin as saying.
Naryshkin said there is a "fierce struggle" between the largest global and regional centres of power to define the rules of the future world order.
"Our shared, and perhaps principal, task is to ensure that adaptation to the new reality proceeds without a major war, as has happened at previous historical stages," Naryshkin was quoted as saying.
