Russian President Vladimir Putin has called for a greater role for the BRICS bloc in global energy markets as Russia seeks to counter Western influence. The annual Energy Week International Forum, hosted by Russia, will be held later this week and is expected to include a meeting of BRICS energy ministers.
President Vladimir Putin called on Monday for a bigger role for the BRICS bloc on world’s energy markets as Russia seeks ways to counter Western influence.
“It is obvious that in the new geopolitical realities, cooperation in the energy sector should serve to strengthen national economies, help solve priority social problems, and improve people’s quality of life,” Putin said in a letter to the forum’s participants and guests. In the past, the forum was also attended by delegates from Saudi Arabia, the world’s largest oil exporter. The Saudi energy ministry did not immediately reply to a question about whether or not Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman would attend the event.
