Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the Greater Eurasian Partnership remains open to all organizations across the continent, according to TASS.
Lavrov noted that several regional and economic bodies, including the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Eurasian Economic Union, the Gulf Cooperation Council, OPEC and ASEAN, are working to develop deeper economic and transport cooperation within this broader framework.
The remarks reflect Russia's continued promotion of the Greater Eurasian Partnership concept, which Moscow has presented as a framework for integrating diverse regional organizations across Europe and Asia into a wider cooperative structure.
Lavrov did not specify concrete new agreements or initiatives resulting from the involvement of these organizations, framing his comments instead around the general direction of ongoing cooperation efforts.
TASS's report did not include responses from the named organizations themselves regarding the characterization of their role within the partnership framework described by Lavrov.
