The participants of the meeting also emphasised the need to depoliticise the negotiations process and activity of this association, as well as to focus its discussions on the social and economic challenges and needs of the Global South.
Among the key areas of efforts are the democratisation of global management and the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. The importance of boosting the role of the dynamically developing economies in trade, industrial and financial institutions was also noted.
Russia confirmed its support of the Indian presidency in the G20 and analysed the destructive impact of the illegitimate sanctions on international development prospects, as well as on food and energy security.
The Minister shared his view of the Western states’ pressure on the developing countries in the attempts to involve them in certain formats “of mutual interest,” reckless plans of global settlement according to Western templates, boosting the delivery of weapons to the Kiev regime, extending the armed conflict in Ukraine and isolating Russia.
