... prove itself as a global power. It is precisely the crisis and the hegemonic aspirations of the West that allow the rest of the G20 members to look for and eventually find those bold and non-standard solutions that will lead to a new, more just and equal ... ... participants. The organisation worked exactly as long as its decisions brought benefits primarily to the developed countries like the USA and Europe.

... involvement of smaller economies in global economic decision-making and raise the legitimacy of the existing global organizations and networks.

... reigning paradigm was that of prioritising reserve accumulation and macroeconomic stability at the expense of boosting economic growth. This was most clearly observed in 2020, when Russia’s fiscal stimulus proved to be more moderate than in most of the G20 economies.

Structures such as the G20, BRICS or SCO did not exist at the time, and Russia’s membership in NATO and the European Union seemed unrealistic even then. Therefore, joining the “Group of Seven” not only pursued situational tasks (access to financial and technical assistance ...
