JAKARTA - The global security fragility has been unmatched since the Second World War, which requires a willingness to compromise to avoid a new global conflict, Head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency (SVR) Sergey Naryshkin said Tuesday.

"The world is now experiencing the most fragile moment for international security since World War Two, which is a period of global order qualitative transformation," he said.

Naryshkin said there was a "strict struggle" between the largest global and regional power centers to determine world order rules in the future.

"Our common task, and perhaps the main thing, is to ensure that adaptations to new realities take place without a major war, as has happened in previous historical stages," said Naryshkin.

He also again said President Volodymyr Zelensky's administration was hampering the peace process in Ukraine.

Russia launched a war in Ukraine with a full-scale invasion of the country in February 2022.
