Vladimir Putin sent greetings to participants and guests of the 7th Russian Energy Week International Forum.
Friends,
I am happy to welcome you all to the 7th Russian Energy Week.
As per tradition, delegates from government agencies and business and expert communities from many countries will meet to discuss the current state and development prospects of the Russian and global energy sector, including their digital transformation and the enhancement of their efficiency and environmental safety. A specialised exhibition of equipment and technology for the fuel and energy sector is of utmost interest.
The theme of this year’s forum – Energy Cooperation in a Multipolar World – is extremely important and topical. It is clear that energy cooperation in the new geopolitical realities should help strengthen national economies, promote the achievement of priority social goals and improve the quality of people’s lives.
I would like to emphasise that a meeting of BRICS energy ministers, scheduled to be held on the sidelines of the forum, will be a key event of Russia’s BRICS Chairmanship. The ministers will coordinate the principles of a fair energy transition shared by our countries and map out ways to strengthen BRICS’ role in the global energy dialogue.
I am confident that you will have substantive and constructive discussions and that your agreements and initiatives will facilitate the implementation of our joint projects and the development of a just and mutually beneficial international energy partnership.
I wish you fruitful work and all the best.
