Russian Foreign Ministry: Moscow independently made a decision on representation at the BRICS summit
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that the Russian Federation independently made a decision on the head of the delegation at the BRICS summit in South Africa. Earlier it was announced that Russian President Vladimir Putin will speak at the event via video link, and the delegation will be headed by Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
“Such a scheme has been used repeatedly,” Zakharova said.
She added that “it still determines who will represent the country, the country itself.” When asked by journalists about publications in the South African media, according to which the host side insisted on the cancellation of Putin’s personal visit, Zakharova replied that she did not have such information. She also urged “not to look for any pitfalls, intrigues, and so on.”
