at the plenary session “BRICS Parliamentary Dimension: Prospects for Strengthening Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation” at the 10th BRICS Parliamentary Forum.

According to the Chairman of the State Duma, Russia has always stood for strengthening the role of states in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East in international affairs. “We see that now more and more countries seek to strengthen their sovereignty, national and cultural identity. This process is irreversible. It will only gain momentum. People want to plan their lives, their future,” added Vyacheslav Volodin.

Such organizations as BRICS, according to the Chairman of the State Duma, have great prospects, since relations within the association are built on the principles of respect, friendship, and non-interference in the internal affairs of sovereign states.

“When we talk about BRICS, we see that the organization turns into one of the key pillars of the multipolar world, which, as we see, begins to shape. The demand for it is enormous, and every country, every nation wants the world to be more fair,” emphasized Vyacheslav Volodin.

On July 11–12, St. Petersburg hosts the 10th BRICS Parliamentary Forum at the Tauride Palace. As part of the events of the Forum, parliamentarians will discuss the role of parliaments in enhancing the efficiency of the system of international relations and ensuring its democratization, issues of countering the fragmentation of the multilateral trading system and the results of global crises. Aspects of inter-parliamentary humanitarian and cultural cooperation will also be discussed at the meetings.
