Richard Youngs, FRIDE Director General, commented on the international agenda at the Yaroslavl Global Policy Forum presentation 27.06.2011

'I think what is really needed is a contribution from European and other countries over the longer term to help build political institutions, to help with civilian instruments, building civil society, helping build a more robust economic system ,' said Youngs, the director general of Fride, a European think tank. 'This is really where the challenge lies over the next five to 10 years - to try to build a more open and responsive political system after the current conflict hopefully ends .'
