A multipolar world is becoming a reality, this is an irreversible trend, Vladimir Putin said at the plenary session of the Russia-Africa Forum. According to the president, a more just world, where the voices of the majority are heard, replaces a unipolar world. Putin's other statements: the formation of a multipolar world is not easy and meets resistance from countries accustomed to thinking in terms of the colonial past and enriching themselves at the expense of others; The era in which the fate of entire continents was determined by a narrow bloc of states is irreversibly passing away; More than 40% of global GDP in the last five years was produced by the BRICS countries, while the share of the G7 is less than 30%; Africa's influence and authority on the world stage are growing, the continent is increasingly declaring itself as one of the centers of the international economy; there are attempts by Western countries to once again force African countries into debt bondage; Putin called tariff wars and sanctions illegitimate Tools of neo-colonialism; Russia actively participates in efforts to improve Africa's financial health; Moscow advocates strengthening the role of African countries in making key decisions in international organizations, especially in the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank; Africa needs solutions that will allow it to manage its resources independently.
