Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova: BRICS Represents Global Majority

Yara Sameh Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova stated that BRICS has evolved from an informal platform for dialogue into an association capable of responding to global challenges with practical actions, according to TV BRICS. She spoke about this in an exclusive interview at the TV BRICS studio in the Roscongress International Cooperation Area at St. Petersburg International Economic Forum ( SPIEF) 2025. According to her, BRICS represents the global majority, which possesses real leadership qualities. She also noted that the countries of the group unite a significant part of the world's population. "This is an association that has brought together representatives of the global majority under its umbrella, who through their work and achievements truly demonstrate leadership qualities and, accordingly, occupy leadership positions," she added. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry added that BRICS does not need any additional assessments, as it demonstrates everything based on real facts. "This is a group of countries that are the largest in terms of their territory. And terms of population, and in terms of area, and in terms of achievements in science, technology, and culture," she said. Maria Zakharova also commented on the significance of the SPIEF. She called the forum an established international platform for communication. "Of course, the original meaning and core is economics, finance, exchange of opportunities, and search for partners. But this forum has long gone beyond a single topic," she concluded. The SPIEF is the largest business event held annually in St. Petersburg since 1997. Since 2006, it has been held under the patronage of the President of Russia. The forum brings together politicians, businesspeople and experts from dozens of countries.
