MOSCOW, October 1. /TASS/. The world still faces acute problems, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the plenary session of the 23rd meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club.

He said that sooner or later everyone in the world will have to agree on a new world order, but, unfortunately, we have to admit that for now, other tasks are at hand – tasks that are far more urgent.

"Even though the host said that everyone needs to be calmed down, the pressing problems haven’t gone away. They exist," Putin noted.
