ST. PETERSBURG, June 3. /TASS/. The lineup of participants at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum demonstrates that globalist policies have completely failed, Russian presidential special representative for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries and CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) Kirill Dmitriev told reporters on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF).
"Today, the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum begins. It is one of the world’s most important events, with representatives from more than 130 countries expected to attend. It is taking place at a very important moment, when globalist policies have completely failed. The forum brings together sovereign countries that are ready to move forward on the basis of partnership toward developing their economies and pursuing constructive economic action. This is what distinguishes the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum from globalist forums such as Davos and others, which have demonstrated their ineffectiveness and failure in the ideology they promote," Dmitriev said.
The RDIF chief noted that Global South countries are increasing their economic power, actively moving toward partnership with Russia, and will be widely represented at the forum.
