The third G20 sherpa meeting will take place in Rio de Janeiro from July 3-5, opening a practical work on the draft project of the G20 Summit declaration. The G20 summit itself is scheduled for November 18-19.
“Together with the like-minded countries we will express our opinion about a complicated situation in international relations, which led to constant conflicts, instability and trade wars. We will also firmly suppress any attempts to artificially politicize economic cooperation or the imposition by G7 of its false one-sided assessment of the developments on the international arena,” Berdyev said.
The key topics chosen by the Brazilian G20 presidency for the discussion are the fight against poverty, famine, implementing fair energy transitions with no damage for economic progress, and reforming global governing institutions, the official said.
“Russia fully supports the agenda indicated,” he said.
The Russian delegation at the sherpa meeting will be led by G20 Sherpa and Deputy Chief of Presidential Experts' Directorate, Svetlana Lukash, Berdyev said. Lukash will be accompanied by some officials from the Russian presidential administration and the economic cooperation department.
