On October 18 at 11:00 a.m. Moscow time, the Valdai Club will host a presentation of the new report “BRICS+ Energy: A Mover for the New World Order” on the eve of the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia.
At the meeting in Nizhny Novgorod as part of the current Russian chairmanship, the BRICS foreign ministers agreed to develop mutual energy cooperation. In a joint statement, they emphasised that universal access to energy resources is the most important foundation for economic development, social stability, national security and the well-being of all countries.
How will joining the community of Middle Eastern powers change the balance of power in the energy market? What are the prospects for BRICS consolidation in energy? What role will the energy agenda play at the upcoming summit in Kazan? The author of the report and the participants in the discussion will try to answer these and other questions.
