Real opposition to the threat of international terrorism is only possible if an effective mechanism of practical coordination is created, the President noted.

Close interaction is also required to solve such global problems as hunger, mass epidemics and ecological threats.

The Russian President gave credential letters to the ambassadors of the Federal Republic of Brazil, the Republic of Austria, the Republic of the Philippines, the Islamic Republic of Mauritania, the Republic of France, the Kingdom of Bahrain and the Republic of Burundi.
