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.

Over 2 Tons of Cocaine Worth £96 Mln Seized at London Port

Israa Farhan British authorities have announced the seizure of 2.4 metric tons of cocaine at London Gateway port, one of the largest drug interceptions in the country's history. The estimated street value of the narcotics stands at £96 million. According to the UK Home Office, this operation ranks as the sixth-largest cocaine seizure ever recorded in the United Kingdom. The drugs were discovered concealed beneath dozens of shipping containers aboard a vessel arriving from Panama, a known transit hub for international narcotics trafficking. The interdiction was carried out earlier this month by specialist officers from the UK Border Force, who worked in coordination with the port operator to relocate 37 large containers in order to reach the illicit cargo. Authorities emphasized the strategic significance of this interception. Container ships remain a key method used by transnational criminal networks to smuggle cocaine into the United Kingdom. This seizure reflects the growing sophistication of British border security efforts. Charlie Eastaugh, Director of Maritime Operations at UK Border Force, highlighted that the operation exemplifies the agency's proactive stance in combating organized crime. British law enforcement is increasingly leveraging intelligence-sharing and cross-border cooperation to identify and dismantle international drug networks. The United Kingdom remains one of Europe's largest cocaine markets, with cocaine-related fatalities in England and Wales rising by 31% between 2022 and 2023, according to official government data. The National Crime Agency (NCA) continues to warn that the country is a major target for global narcotics traffickers. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
