tracks of bricks cooperation on our initiatives and priorities for the upcoming

year one of the issues on the table will be the idea to launch the bricks Center
2:51
for industrial competences but clearly they are so
2:56
numerous that it is impossible to cover all of of them within such a limited time
3:03
frame we will welcome our new members in their active engagement in
3:10
these Collective efforts along with the founding five in the spirit of

4:32
Rich I am sure it will set the pace for our active multilateral Cooperative work
4:39
during the whole year and I look forward to our constructive and fruitful
4:47
discussion with this I conclude my introductory remarks and thank you for
4:54
your attention and uh by now ask Professor
5:01
Anil suklal to take the floor you have the floor
5:06
sir thank you thank you very much uh my good friend and brother Deputy Minister
5:13
SE rakov and to my good friend pav and male
5:18
and your entire team let me firstly say how pleased we are to be here in Moscow
5:25
we arrived from a very warm South Africa with temperatures well over
5:31
30° and we got off the plane into the icy cold H were they in Moscow but that
5:40
was shortlived because soon as we stepped into the protocol launch we were
5:45
met with the warmth that we traditionally know of our colleagues from Russia and we forgot about the cold
5:53
so thank you for the warm manner in which we have been received let me also
6:00
also express my greetings to my fellow bricks colleagues uh that are here my
6:07
brother from China uh colleagues from India Brazil and of course all of the
6:15
new family members that are now part of the bricks family uh it is indeed a
6:20
historical occasion uh to be meeting here Russia of course has been at the
6:27
Forefront of bricks it was was in Russia that the first summit was held in 2009
6:34
and it was Russia that set the ball rolling so to say in terms of of bricks
6:40
making an impact on the global platform it was in 2015 when we met in Ufa that
6:46
we took the decision to house the new development Bank in shangai and it was
6:51
in 2020 again in Russ under Russia's chairship that we launched the women's business
6:57
Alliance so it is appropriate that we meet yeah as the extended bricks under
7:04
Russia's chairship given the pioneering role that Russia has played throughout
7:09
the lifespan of bricks and I am confident under the chairship of Russia
7:15
and especially the leadership of SE that we are going to have a very fruitful and
7:23
productive uh presidency of bricks under Russia we fully like to end course the
7:30
theme that has been chosen by Russia for for this year's chairship strengthening
7:35
multilateralism for just Global development and security this of course
7:42
is continuity in terms of the work that we have been doing over the past several
7:47
chairship of bricks and for the bricks family multilateralism has been at the
7:55
core of its agenda from the very first summit in 201 n because as bricks we
8:01
believe in multi multilateralism and I think the need of the day in this very
8:07
fractured Global community that we live in today is to reinforce strengthen and
8:12
reform multilateralism as the key Global institution to bring back sanity in this
8:19
world that we find ourselves in that is constantly becoming more and more
8:24
complex I would also like to express my deep gratitude to all of our bricks
8:29
partners for the support that we received during South Africa's chairship
8:35
and we could only have had a successful chairship and a successful Summit because of the collective efforts of all
8:41
of us the success of the 15 bricks Summit was not South Africa's success
8:48
but the success of the bricks family and the global South as a whole the world community and especially
8:56
the global South looks to Bricks for leadership ship and I believe that bricks has been providing critical
9:04
leadership during this difficult period in human history and I believe that
9:09
there will be increasing pressure on bricks to continue providing leadership and providing Direction in terms of
9:16
creating a new international order that is just that is fair and that is
9:22
inclusive and where the global South are not continually marginalized including
9:29
Africa being on the margins of the global community and I believe under Russia's chairship we will address all
9:35
of these issues in a comprehensive consensus manner as is the
9:40
tradition within bricks we have a very ambitious program of some 250 meetings
9:47
last year when we chaired at South Africa I thought the 200 meetings were quite a handful of meetings but bricks
9:55
as SE has mentioned bricks has always been ambitious and I think we need to
10:00
continue being ambitious we need to be ambitious to set a new agenda in terms
10:06
of determining the unfolding Global International order we need to be ambitious in terms of what we envisage
10:14
for the developing world the global South we need to be ambitious in terms
10:20
of ensuring that the unfolding Global Order is an order that speaks to the
10:26
needs of humanity as a whole and not a select few as is the case at the present
10:32
time we need to address some of the critical Global hotspot issues that
10:37
seems to make our lives far more difficult even though some of us are not
10:43
directly involved in it but we lived in an interconnected Global Society where
10:48
the events of one part of the world has an impact on the lives of all of us we need to ensure that the lives of our
10:58
community ities of our people and of our countries are enriched through our
11:04
actions and that what we do as bricks is not just restricted to the government
11:09
private sector or academic level but it percolates and impacts positively on the lives of all of our peoples in a
11:17
positive way and I think that's the fundamental pillar of bricks we will continue to focus on some of the key
11:23
challenges that has been given to us as shephers and to our ministers in ter
11:29
terms of the partner country categories and if we thought that last year we had
11:35
a great deal of interest in bricks I believe that interest has grown manifold
11:40
over the past several months as SE has pointed out close to 30 countries have
11:46
now approached us to become members of bricks and I think that's again a vote
11:52
of confidence that what bricks is doing and what we stand for and what we aspire
11:58
to for all of us in an inclusive manner is that we are doing something right and I
12:04
think we have this moral obligation to constantly speak out and Champion the
12:10
needs of the developing world that is an expectation from the International
12:15
Community and I would like to say increasingly a number of developed countries countries of the global North
12:23
are quietly knocking the door of bricks and saying that we want to work with you and I think that's a positive sign
12:30
because bricks is not anti-west we've never said that whatever we do is in
12:35
opposition to any block or any part of the world we have always said we are open to speak to all those that believes
12:42
in the principle of equality inclusiveness and moving together as a global community so we look forward to
12:50
working very closely with you SE under Russia's chairship as I've said Russia
12:55
has always been a flagbearer of bricks and you have have provided leadership and I confident under your leadership we
13:02
will have a very fruitful Russian presidency with very substantial
13:08
deliverables you can rest assured of the full cooperation of South Africa and we
13:13
look forward to working with you in enhancing the voice of bricks the presence of bricks and ensuring that
13:20
bricks is at the Forefront in providing leadership at this much needed hour in

looking uh presidency of China um that um established and
35:38
initiated the procedural process of expansion and that led to the expansion
35:44
uh and this is something that we're very grateful for um but we um we could not
35:51
have been more happy that the call to join bricks came from our continent in
35:57
Africa and because of the decisive leadership of our brothers and sisters
36:03
in South Africa um we're also excited that uh Brazil and India our neighbors on the
36:11
table um found the necessity the rationale the wisdom and the potential
36:18
of having this expansion and this is something that we're grateful to in preparing for this meeting in
36:25
preparing for the more than 200 me meetings that we have this year and our full membership at large we do have um
36:32
um a high level committee that we establish right after the call from Johannesburg we have been um studying in
36:40
depth the um the priorities of the Russian presidency that you kindly

37:29
insecurities we don't have the institution memory of the founding members for sure on bricks but I can uh
37:36
I can imagine that this year would be remembered as one of the most critical years for the group uh for several
37:42
reasons of course for the unprecedented overlapping Global crisis that is each
37:48
one of our countries is facing um and the need to have uh
37:54
bricks and the expanded bricks as a balancing force on the international Arena um and addressing the inequalities
38:02
in the international uh order but also of the it's a critical year because of the wide
38:09
opportunities that we have for cooperation and that are very adequately reflected in the priorities that you
38:14
shared with us as the Russian presidency but also uh uh chairman we are under No
38:22
Illusion that it's quite a challenge to ensure uh a smooth onboarding and uh
38:29
full integration of our U the new members into bricks but in all those
38:34
three factors we are very confident that uh under your able
38:40
leadership we will be able to address an adequate address and succeed in each and
38:45
