MOSCOW, April 10 (RIA Novosti) - The United Nations is a global institution, and no other organization can replace it, the Russian foreign minister said Thursday.

"We will strengthen the UN and no other organization will be able to replace it," Sergei Lavrov said at the opening of talks with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

Ban Ki-moon met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and his successor, president-elect Dmitry Medvedev in the Kremlin on Wednesday.
