konstantin iosifovich, the russia-africa forum was recently held in russia. very personable. but literally 2 days ago the russia-latin america parliamentary conference ended. well, it’s clear that these two events are a little different. status, but nevertheless, can they be compared from the point of view of the economic and political interests of our country? you can compare you need to compare both with each other and in relation to those forums that were held earlier , well, let’s say, the russia-africa summit, not parliamentary, but let’s say, presidential, was already the second, as you know, and it was held this year in completely different conditions. under the most severe pressure from our opponents, who by hook or by crook did not allow potential summit participants into the russian federation, the same thing happened with the russia -africa parliamentary forum and the same thing happened with the russia-latin parliamentary forum america, we have just received dozens of messages about how our partners, long-standing, tried and tested, simply threw u

konstantin iosifovich, regarding the discussion of the international agenda, i would like to return tont, this is the g20 parliamentary summit, which was held in daily, in which a delegation of the federation council took part. and if we talk about the results, is it possible to state now that the g20 is undergoing some internal reform, and a transition to a model of such multipolarity , which is much talked about within the framework of a single organization, how obvious is this? this can be seen with the naked eye, but when the twenty were just being formed, let’s remember that at the initial stage the seven countries tried to form its core, which , moreover, by hook or by crook, dragged the european union into the twenty format, so we got eight countries and associations from twenty, very close to half, and after that the majority, somewhere out there, the westerners tried to make this format their own , to make it manageable, at some stage it probably worked, because the other half, it was not consolidated, which - about this... our country thought, china, india, brazil , other cen

konstantin iosifovich, another important topic that i would like to discuss with you is now the escalationthe middle east, and indeed every day there is a feeling that the situation is heating up more and more. in your opinion, what are the current risks of full involvement of muslim countries in this conflict? how far can all this go? well, the sequence is as follows, it seemed to someone that it was not... what hamas did from the territory of the gaza strip, initiating the current escalation of the situation, this happened on the initiative of hamas, but i do not believe that this development of events was unexpected, because it was preceded by 3/4 centuries, because the process of the middle east settlement by creating two states was started by the united nations in 47-48, nothing happened for 75 years, or rather , one half was done, the state was created. and nothing was done to create a second state of palestine, because it actually exists 3/4, more than 150 states of the world, members of the united nations, including russia, recognize the state of palestine, it exists , well, as if

konstantin iosifovich, let's talk about an organization that very often lately puts in opposition to the unipolar world, this is brix, i know you recently returned from the summit... next year is remarkable for brix, as many as six countries, in addition, become members of brix, respectively it turns out to be 11 countries, and it is also remarkable from the point of view that russia will chair this organization, do you think there is some kind of historical mission of russia, because in fact, for the first time, russia will chair an organization that will... consist of 11 countries, that is, well , about half of the population of our planet, well , 45%, maybe accurate, this is very close to half, but there are other factors that predetermine the significance of the brix unification in the modern world, already now the current five brix in terms of gdp recalculated by purchasing power parity exceeds seven, already five, there will be 11 of us, this gap will only increase, already on a scale 11 countries, we will produce 36% of the gross domestic product, the gross national product of
