He expressed this opinion on Espresso.
Valery Chaly commented on the report that Xi Jinping will not participate in the G20 summit.
“Because they are forming their group – BRICS + 6. There are such wonderful countries as Ethiopia, Iran, Argentina as well. China has shown that it is going. Its choice is bipolar, where China is on one policy. I believe that this bipolar world is now emerging more than a multipolar one. And the G20 is unlikely to play the role that was laid for it at the time. In my opinion, in a couple of years the G20 will not be in the form it is now,” said the diplomat.
Chaly noted that the G20 will still join the African Union, and next year there will be another summit, after several summits it will be very problematic to explain what the G20 is.
