Putin Supports BRICS Expansion

Including within BRICS, we're working on shaping an independent payment system free from political pressure, abuse, and external sanctional interference. In this regard, I'd like to remind you that this year, BRICS was joined by new participants, that is, Saudi Arabia, Iran, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, and Ethiopia. With this, the share of our association in global GDP has reached 36%, and the population of the planet has reached 45%. And BRICS has tremendous potential for joining of new participants, and such strive of stakeholders from different continents can only be welcomed by us and will support it.

Putin: West Undermined Own Payment Systems

"Trust in the Western payment systems has been dealt a significant blow — by Western countries themselves. In this context, I can say that the share of so-called toxic currencies of unfriendly countries in payments made for Russian exports halved last year," Putin said at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF). "The share of the Russian national currency in payments to and from Russia, on the contrary, has neared 40%," Putin estimated.
