00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the R.E.D.I.M.E. website.
00:04Entering 2025, our country officially takes over as the chairman of the Eastern European Union.
00:09The first ministerial meeting of the Eastern European Union is currently being held in Florida.
00:14The non-official meeting of the Foreign Minister of the Eastern European Union focuses on the latest developments in Southeast Asia and international key issues,
00:20including the Myanmar crisis, the South China Sea situation, and other challenges that may affect regional peace and stability.
00:26At the same time, the meeting will also discuss the direction of the Eastern European Union's strategy,
00:29and strengthen the Eastern European Union's joint-stakeholding construction and foreign relations.
00:33Foreign Minister Mohassan said at the opening of the meeting that
00:36although the US President-elect Trump may bring changes to the global order after taking office,
00:42the potential of the Eastern European Union must not be ignored when the game and competition of the regional superpowers intensify.
00:50He said that the Eastern European Union, as the world's fifth largest economy,
00:53has an economic volume of 3.8 trillion US dollars and a total population of 6.7 billion people,
01:00making the Eastern European Union the focus of superpowers' competition.
01:04But he believes that the Eastern European Union should go its own way.
01:09Foreign Minister Mohassan emphasized at the opening of the non-official meeting of the Foreign Minister of the Eastern European Union held in Florida today
01:15that a united Eastern European Union has great power.
01:18He believes that the Eastern European Union has the potential to play an important role
01:23with its regional strategic position, diverse culture and economic influence in Southeast Asia.
01:26We hope that the incoming leaders of our dialogue partners' nations will take note of the increasingly important part we play
01:35and engage with us diplomatically and open-mindedly.
01:39It is a role that we must play ourselves.
01:42We are the speakers and not the spoken word.
01:47Mohassan also emphasized that in the face of rapid global change,
01:51the Eastern European Union must build a resilient regional economy and prepare for emergencies at any time.
01:56The Eastern European Union not only needs to survive, but also needs to share prosperity.
01:59The ASEAN Conference is a region that is one of the most diverse in the world.
02:05Yet, by all expectations of outsiders, we are also among the most peaceful.
02:12We do not wage war on one another.
02:15We do not undermine each other's sovereignty.
02:18We do so much more than simply co-exist.
02:21We collaborate.
02:23This is our way and it is precisely the ASEAN way that will carry us through the turbulence of coming years.
