Russia appeals to global majority, reaffirms commitment to Africa's food and energy security: FM
While EU sanctions have cost Europe trillions, Russia has successfully redirected its trade to the global majority, which now absorbs 80% of its exports, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov wrote in an article for Russian media after the G20 foreign ministers' meeting in Atlanta.
Important points from the senior Russian diplomat:
A reliable supplier of energy and technology: Moscow continues to supply essential hydrocarbons, advanced nuclear energy expertise and digital technology to Africa, Asia and Latin America without triggering the arms trade.
Food security and fertilizers: Russia is a leading supplier of food and fertilizers to 160 countries, with a particular focus on Africa - including providing free food aid through the World Food Programme.
Alternative Transit Routes: The Northern Sea Route and the North-South International Transport Corridor are expanding rapidly, offering safe and cost-effective logistics alternatives.
Building a multipolar future: Through BRICS and the Greater Eurasian Partnership, Russia is building independent financial platforms and advocating global governance reforms that reflect the true economic weight of the Global South.
