very good friends, personal relationship, but also countries, of course, that have a relationship that has in georgia, no need lost them. and they did, of course, praise those long standing a ties. we've moved out to ad saying that in the last 15 years, brick says really creates almost its own personality. i didn't see your excellence see. first of all, i would like to thank you for your friendship, warm reception and hospitality, and i'm very glad to travel to cause and to this beautiful city to participate in the brick summit. india has deep historic ties with this city, and we will open a console it here after the summit and our relations will grow even stronger. your excellence, see, this is my 2nd visit to russia in the last 3 months, which is testament to the close coordination and strong friendship between our countries. in july in moscow, as you mentioned, we had a bilateral summit. and after our discussions, our cooperation in all fields grew stronger. your excellence see your successfully

presiding over the bricks, organization since the start of the year. i would like to congratulate you on that . over the last 15 years of its existence bricks established its identity. already many countries in the world now want to join this association, and i'm looking forward to our discussions within the break summit tomorrow and your excellency. as for the ongoing conflict between russia and ukraine, we regularly stay in touch. we maintain contact, and as i said before, i believe that the problem must be resolved with peaceful means. and we support a peaceful solution. and in all our efforts, we prioritize humanity and we are ready to give any possible assistance in the future as well. and today we'll have a chance to discuss all these matters. and once again, i would like to thank you. it's just a key. we have such a relationship that i think you understand everything without translation. hard and the key to you, and we really appreciate our cooperation in this area, bearing in mind that our states were at the origins of the creation of the

association. russian indian relations have the character of a particularly privileged strategic partnership. and they continue to develop actively our foreign ministers are in constant contact jane, because police department is that we, i'm very glad to see you and your entire representative team in russia was the indian lead and mentioned he's already been to russia to see about getting it july, i covered his visit, in fact, it was his fast for and trip. since being re elected was a great energy and in most go as that will took place who also joined me also on a brief top, slightly different whether it was a touch. wilma, i'll admit, was all to you in just a bridge and sharma. she's also come to cause on, she picks up the story and that's it. from the indian perspective, i am in the heart of design and this is where all the brakes action will be unfolding needles. all the weeks. nations have started coming into cars on so i'm going to send a range of motor, you search and be here, and he has

a bottle fact schedule is now something which has become static to stick or if he is with it is basically him going for his farm visits and then meeting the indian dias for i, but off to that of course saw the prime minister of india and they're going to more deep eating. and this is a biological with the russian president for the my poor thing. but this is a $1000000.00 question, whether it would be a by law to between the in june. so i'm going to start having to movie and the chinese president, she to think if that happens, that is going to be on president did that is going to be on thinkable, given the fact that there has been a bought a dispute between both the nations, which is going on for the last 4 and a half years, but only now, only few days before this was it to be sold that the things started getting better off a hint of normal seats. and only yesterday it was announced by the foreign secretary of india, that disengagement will happen and the deadlock has finally ended. the timing killer is very,

very interesting because it looks like that's what experts thing such just before tricks. because the relationship between the 2 countries seem to someone get normal, doesn't petroleum, which has been a non so, which means painting all for the army on both sides of the border of india and china. and the dissing gauge meant, of course, is something that we are looking at doing for i'm, it is still a section with victor, russia, in, in a yard. and this is extremely significant, given the fact that bilateral relationship between new daddy and most school, and they have been warming up the sort of the slaves relationship. now india buys bucks 40 percent of its oil from russia. india also buys it on 60 percent of adopt supplies from uh, from las go. what's important to your, to remember is that sanctions have not worked. remember, both india and russia. they started tweeting national pharmacies to build port to between the bricks. nation really has been that they cannot let the wes invoice any

sort of the sections on them and not on the agenda. of course we're going to be keeping a track of the brick, so make sure it goes on. well, joining us over the next couple of days for people to be people from the fields economists form a diplomats political unless but forget about them. now of course you have independent thought send this sonya funds and so and it was wonderful to how to you . um, you know, purchase an exciting movie nights a sudden and it's obviously been around for a long time since 2006. but it really feels the last couple of years that it's kind of come into it. so we know that more and more nations are interested in becoming a part of the family over 30. and when i look at the timing, i want to get you takes or do you think the brakes would have thrown in the way that it's grown? if it hadn't been, for example, for the war and ukraine. oh, so us policy is route withdrawal from samsung,

generally. the kind of mistreatment of the methods. yeah, i think so because we all know that through the war in ukraine with inside of conflict, that europe is a sliding economy. we can see it's, for example, in germany. germany is the industrialized states industrialization. so it's become worse and worse in europe also to us, of course, but especially in germany. and another point i would make is that not it's not only because of the war and ukraine, but also we have defend demick and you notice and the independent make the already sets in europe. we will not have to go back to normal. and the ment we're having a great recess because we have degrees in europe, and they want to establish a society without oil without gas, without fossil fuels. so i mean, this is also, i think, playing a part, but the big role of course is ukraine. we can see a lot of nations outside your room. they do not degree with uh, you know,

that's what your of is doing. i mean, actually they are waiting some kind of war liked us is doing a proxy war for now. so this is the whole points that it's, uh, yeah, it's accelerating. it's what you can see a lot of people ones. i mean, obviously you took virus out west and involvement in the conflict and ukraine. and it was just astonishing. i was coming across a sick with an e u as provided support to ukraine, which is equivalent to ask because in toy infrastructure financing got about a $100000000000.00. i'm like, oh my goodness, what a discrepancy in priority. and it really, i think those to show why bricks has become a premier platform for the global. so which i think has felt not just plotting to it's like we know by colonialism, pause, but also so neglected and dictated to century. yes, of course the 1st priority they were calling me the whole of ethic. i nearly, i mean, we can, my country's and ellen's head south africa,

also indonesia. that's not africa, but okay, this is all we know all this history and i mean, but it's, it's, it meant viewing the imagination, the amount of money they are spending in ukraine. you know, every week or every month, at least they have somehow, uh saying, okay, and all the so many 1000000000 or 1000000 and where does the money come from? because we see this society in europe. it's degrading, you know, there's property, there's homelessness, we see homelessness into us. for example, we see homelessness in germany in the big cities, you can see it. so it was supposed to be also in the u. okay. we have only, you know, these recent things going on for a while. so, i mean, i wonder where the money is coming from, but of course, what they say they are now close this case in russian money. so i mean, it's crazy that just stealing money in my opinion, but i can imagine that africa saying, hey, what are you doing there guys? i mean, this is crazy. so we need to find other partners because they don't want to be

calling the again, they want to have spark the silver and partner what can help them and was it going to me? and this is, i think the erupt in union was all about. it was about economy, but now it's about sanctions. it's about war. bricks is something you and for your rope, and this is, there are maybe afraid of it because they were losing africa as economy. so it is terrible for them. good for them, sonia, apologies to you, but i'm being told you might it piece which is that's not him. a person is about to host the south african present. so around this those who flew in a bit articles ot bricks, members to sonya, bear with me. but i'm afraid promissory is, is going to have to do out just to the environment. let's uh, let's submit a, oh no, sorry, go live tv. i'm teasing you. but so for the meantime, i'm very glad you know it's on you. what i want to watch the tweaks there about the freezing of when he was $300000000000.00. right. and for, and besides and it makes you realize, i mean, for a long time the us was it,

the us one was a go back currency. so that it was not, it became a see, a current dealt with fact quite confident like trust me. and i think when we look at this tendency towards no, i don't want to put a di told her, i'd say shouldn't, because that feels like a very negative thing, tracy and local currencies, which seems natural. why shouldn't card see strings in the national currencies? and it feels like it's a reaction to what has happened to us, how to use it currency and the way that i may be actually it wouldn't find itself in a situation without 20 percent oil trade. it's done in non us store. there's no space 100 percent just 2 years ago. mm hm. what exactly, and i think also it is part of the sanctions. i mean the sanctions are big firing. i mean, this is accelerating. also, the countries, the silver and countries are paying in their own currency. and of course,

a chinese, russia they had now don't want to do in dollars anymore. i mean, they still do, of course, and some extent they shoot because there's no other way. but it's, you know, this is the whole problem that it's so raise the, this is on believe what i'm being forced to do to this. i got like i to use to president putin has a much he's with the south ask and present the dream. and mr. president here, friends, we are very glad to welcome you because you're in rushing cause and but he's not to live. there were straight issue and you know, putting it through shift assembly to biddicks. we are grateful for accepting our invitation to participate at the brakes on it. tonight,

we are going to participate in the opening ceremony of these here, russia, just a few to pieces that just to be new. and we were really not sure what to order from the switch with them. the south african republican became a president of the brakes and we are working with the considerations with the transfer of declaration, the new which is nick of we work on organic integration of the new participants to the multiple layer to break circuit venture. we worked in close contact with our south african friends to agree with you. this is if you would on the partnership and meet you in the state. the state is truly various agencies of our country's working together. we need the inputs and with financial matters to expand the system to expand the use of national occurrences and mutual settlements and the development of the human issue at present currency and our relations for it. based

on the comprehensive strategic partnership, equality and detail. the risk fact we are developing our dialing commercial interest in politics with the political matters. our foreign ministers worked together as security council as our parliament are working together. the trade in economic times of the contract in south africa are traditionally funded on the good level, after a certain reduction in the trade turnover, the trade continued to grow again. and over that 8 months of this year and the growth was 3 percent and i wanted to explain you not an issue and your interest and mattress and sadie. so need to be improved that adverse invocation and answer going freight. and i'm an investment that promising areas which day would self cooperation of the energy industry, even though agriculture, science innovations, russia in south africa, couldn't you? it's mccarthy made largely not using all right now for it's on the international law firms as well as to establish

a fair and loyalty pool or world border. and of course, the roster obviously attaches great significance to strengthening corporation with the african countries. a little worse to the other on the practical implementation, all of the agreements that you've reached as the rush africa summit in st. petersburg, glen the dc due to addition to the corporation and the plan of action. don't go until show. clinton minus saves. we look forward to seeing the head of your, usually the foreign ministry and the switches in sante. you have to just shut the when the video on november and 9 and 10 with me just just click on the 1st one ministerial conference on the rough aspect kind of partnerships for him once again the welcome, cuz then welcome, mr. president. a thank you very much. thank you very much for your kind words of welcome to the joy and the

please that with your support in every respect we've been able to reach this point in the history of our country. so we continue to see russia as a valued ally as a very good friend who supported us right from the beginning, from the days of us struggle against a party drive through to now. so we're really delighted to be here and to know that we're going to have important discussions here in cuz on within the big spend the day. so thank you very much for coming things here. well the we had at the russian and south african presidents to people who of course no child that the very well. but i think that the 1st time back in 2018 there cools

original members of the bricks. family article sees the 2 countries which have such a long history dates move away back to the so the union which you have, the serial ramos those i did mention, you talked about most goes support for it on t. appall, tied, struggling not very important. and understanding why a lot of the global south has been rec to sent to condemn isolate, to sign on to some of the west and sanctions on his students. he towards russia. that was staying at the moment. well, there's to offer it by lots of lots to talk about. i mean, there's already a blossoming relationship. i have a 70 documents exist between these 2 nations covering everything from mining to intellectual property, from trade and security, entity and investment. and of course, it's a very exciting time for the african continent as a whole. no, it's, uh, economies are actually grubbing faults than any other continent in the world, in public people to use for 10 percent in the last 2 years. so really feels like

kind of africa is rising. i think part of that as we've been hearing from odessa, is a key to bricks is success. it feels like a process of empowerment. well, like i said, africa exciting times. and partly we can see that with egypt to meet the peer to which did join the ranks of the group and we know that some others and cannot jerry upset is absolutely i'll go to joint breaks within 2 to 3 years south ask of cool. so what's the constance foss nation to become a part of the brick family? like i said, back in 2010, i had told the traveling to cuz you were on the 3rd is a really reiterated. well, what we had just now, which is that the country is ready to fully embrace on the great potential that breaks office. the historic expansion of bricks creates for the opportunities to foster pro, bust, trade and development corporation. the expanded bricks group now

covers 43 percent of the was population. the group together accounts for 27 percent of global g d p, and the 5th of what exports the opportunities for cooperation, economic progress, immense as the biggest business console has a crucial role in expanding trade. which in bricks, countries, south africa, is ready to play is part and realizing the konami potential breaks. in the midst of an improved economic outlook for south africa. the african continental free trade area is looking massive opportunities for trade investment and industrial growth as the african continent is looking for partnerships that were i love the dynamic and the potential of fits

1300000000 people. well joining the backup. try on ceremoniously kick throughout this for the south african president, i mean, honest, independent thoughts on the sonya funds and, you know, i'm, it's interesting to you, i'm glad because it rama 30. so it was one of those that was part of the african piece mission. the visited most go visits of kids, and it seemed that based that you know, we can help facilitate mediation and negotiation. it made me think why to all the bricks and the play for south china that breakfast small between in between their own, unsolved to radiate. we see into your, in china quite some space, me and out some that obviously we're going to pull that forces from that dispute to volta and it made you realize that piece missions have been kind of date kept point west of nations for so long. but really to collect the south nation. so positioning themselves and saying we're here, we're ready,

we want peace and prosperity forever. and why makes us exactly? and we see that peace negotiations are coming from the global south. we so also united arab emirates who are also now part of risks. there are talks going on there as well. so as you know, the solution for the ukraine, the crisis. so i'm in the west. they don't negotiate. i mean, i always say diplomacy is that's the only talk about war, about pumping money into weapons, weapons for peace. they call it's crazy idea. so we see now the south is really wanting a solution. also turkey who also wants to become a member. so they also are trying to, you know, the 1st of course, the goal. she, asians was, we've searcy in turkey. um, uh, you know, as a lensky head on the pressure to say no, because the us and you are a pressure to him to say no. and so i mean, we see only to global sales now one thing to have the solution. i think also this applies for ukraine, but also israel and the palestinian stage because they speak about the 2 state

solution in the west. nobody speaks about, they only speak about, you know, all his well as the heads of his full as that or something like that. so i think the width is ready to collide. this is what i'm always saying. they don't want peace, they lost their head to money, so they lost the south the notice, and this is a real problem for them, and they become more and more radicalized when they lose a country. this is, i think, what is going on? i'm sorry, free for if i could. sonya what's the biggest thing that you expect to come out with the next couple of days? well, i think what you said already china, india has is a maybe they will be nic negotiations again about to craig. this is what i hope and maybe something with israel. i mean that's the whole world is focusing on this. so i think the president of the philistine and authority a boss is coming. so maybe you can go with the therapies because the turks are very unsafe or of course of the 2 state solution. maybe there isn't somehow a 2 state solution again or, you know, it has to come

a life again because it was there in 1993. we do a slower charts. and so let's hope that this will come out. well, president pigeon did say that they would ought to dedicate a session to the palestine court issue. and so it definitely seems that that will be something so many for me just like you mentioned, the regional plays. so now know how to radios and observe. remember the u. a. e. iran sit for them. this very much is a hot topic. so to her it's a pleasure having you hear it depends if you don't, john this is sonya fund. thank. thank you very much. thank you. well, we all just the warming up here for as long as the bricks the does to king we will be to so we will be back at the top with all the very latest. right. so for now though, right from the very heart of the republic, off top of stone and cause on the ball, i will see you at the top or the,

[000:00:00;00] the, [000:00:00;00] the
