Russia Not Seeking to Reshape the World — It's a Natural Process: Putin

NOVO-OGARYOVO (Sputnik) – Russia is not trying to reshape the world order because it is happening naturally, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday.
Reorganisation of the world order is a natural process, Vladimir Putin said during a meeting with media representatives of the BRICS member states on Friday.
"We are not really striving [to reorganise the world order], it happens naturally. We are simply saying that this is an inevitable process and we must react accordingly," Putin said, adding that changes in the world began even before the Ukraine conflict and Russia is trying to contribute to them.
The BRICS expansion is the right step, as it increases the organisation's authority and influence in the world, Russian President highlighted.
"Practice shows that we are on the right track. Practice shows that we have made a good and right step in terms of expansion. I am absolutely convinced that this will increase interest in the organization, influence in the world and authority. We are already seeing this," Putin said at a meeting with the heads of the leading media of the BRICS member countries.
BRICS countries should treat new members of the association with respect, Putin stressed, noting that throughout the year, Russia has been making every effort to gradually and calmly integrate the new members into the organisation's work.
BRICS has a great future, since it represents almost all the new centers of development and power, he asserted.
"I have already said that new development centers, new centers of power are being formed, and all of them are practically represented in BRICS. In this sense, of course, BRICS has a great future, in my opinion," Putin said.
He underscored that BRICS has great respect for other associations and tries to cooperate with them, adding that BRICS is not a bloc organisation and not directed against anyone's interests.
BRICS countries' work will have a beneficial effect on the situation in the world, Putin assured.
Meanwhile, Russia wants to offer its BRICS partners the use of digital currencies in investment processes for the benefit of other developing economies, president Putin stated.
"We would like to suggest that such a serious attitude, such a serious issue, is the issue of using digital currencies in investment processes. And not only in BRICS member countries, but also by BRICS member countries in the interests of other developing economies that have good development prospects," Putin emphasised.
The creation of a BRICS national currency is not being considered at the moment, Putin said, adding that the BRICS countries want to increase the use of national currencies in mutual settlements and are considering instruments for their expansion.
