▶️ An increase in payments in national currencies makes it possible to enhance the financial independence of BRICS countries, mitigate geopolitical risks to the greatest extent, and de-politicize economic development, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the meeting with President of the BRICS New Development Bank (NDB) Dilma Rousseff. “As the country presiding over BRICS this year, we are looking forward to your proactive participation in the meeting of leaders at the BRICS Summit in Kazan,“ the Russian president said. Putin also noted that the NDB has funded 100 projects totaling $33 billion since 2018. Video: ТASS/Ruptly Source: TASS Russian news agency
