🇮🇩🇷🇺 On October 20, the newly elected President of Indonesia, Prabowo Subianto, who had previously served as the country's Minister of Defence, will officially take office.
Already in the period between the elections and the inauguration, Prabowo has demonstrated a great deal of diplomatic activity. He conducted a series of international visits and meetings, including a visit to Russia this summer, where he had a conversation with Vladimir Putin and a meeting at the Ministry of Defence.
History and historical memory provide us with a good opportunity to strengthen bilateral ties between Russia and Indonesia in today's world, writes Oleg Barabanov, Programme Director of the Valdai Discussion Club.

🤝🔋 Energy Cooperation within BRICS: Revolutionary Resistance
On October 18, on the eve of the BRICS summit in Kazan, the Valdai Club hosted a presentation of a report titled “BRICS+ Energy: A Mover for the New World Order.”
💬 Ivan Timofeev, the moderator of the discussion, noted that although the BRICS agenda is quite broad, energy occupies a special place in the group’s agenda, since Russia is the largest supplier of energy resources, and India, China, and Brazil are dynamically growing economic giants that need larger volumes of supplies. The international situation is also favourable for expanding energy cooperation between the group’s countries.
💬 Alexey Grivach, Deputy Director General for Gas Problems of the National Energy Security Fund (NESF) and author of the report, pointed out that the centre of energy development is shifting toward the Global South, particularly the Asia-Pacific region and the BRICS countries. More than thirty years ago, the "collective West" thought that it had won once and for all and that history had ended. However, life has shattered this illusion, and now the BRICS countries are defending their positions in the world. The rate of economic growth in most BRICS countries is also higher than in the West.
In addition, BRICS is a serious energy conglomerate, which has further strengthened its position after expansion. Electricity production, which can be considered a measure of economic power, has grown in the group's countries almost five-fold. He added that in the context of sanctions pressure, the BRICS countries and all countries that want to develop without heeding the dictates of the West are faced with the task of building infrastructure, institutions, and instruments for energy trade. “Our resistance must grow, and this should become one of the main areas of BRICS’ work,” the author of the Valdai Club report believes.
💬 Nivedita Das Kundu, Professor at the Faculty of International Relations at the Uzbekistan State University of World Languages, briefly outlined India’s approach to energy cooperation within BRICS. In her opinion, the topic of the report is “very significant.” The global balance of power is now shifting towards developing economies, and this affects the political and geostrategic situation around the world, she said. Energy cooperation among BRICS member countries serves to break the Western monopoly and hegemony and advances the multilateral agenda. Das Kundu acknowledged that the BRICS group has now adopted a certain anti-Western attitude, and this raises certain concerns for India, which fundamentally adheres to a neutral position and does not want to join the blocs. However, she called the emergence of BRICS+ a good step that facilitates the transition to a new world order.

The main idea of the discussions at the 21st Annual Conference of the Valdai Discussion Club is that the architecture of the system of international relations is moving towards a polycentric structure, but the world is not disintegrating into its constituent parts or losing its integrity. As a result, the presence of global problems implies that the entire world, with its aggregate set of approaches and ideas, is engaged in a search for solutions, not just the Western countries. The search for a unified project that can unite humanity beyond inevitable geopolitical differences to solve universal problems is extremely relevant.
The goal of the conference, which will bring together 140 participants from 50 countries, is to offer non-Western ideas for solving global problems, to make it clear that the leading developed countries do not have a monopoly on formulating the goals and methods of development. The discussions will cover all the main global topics, from the environment and inequality to artificial intelligence and methods of conflict resolution.
📑 A special report, titled “The World From the Bottom Up, or The Masterpieces of Eurasian Architecture” has been prepared for the 21st Annual meeting, offering a framework for discussing the issues outlined during the sessions.
The sessions of the meeting will be structured in a distributed fashion to assess the designated tasks. The agenda will include: the opening and presentation of the annual report, ten thematic sessions, a special session and an open discussion.
Foreign representatives have taken an interest in participating in the annual Valdai forum throughout its entire existence, and this year is no different.
The country balance between representatives of the Global South and participants from Western countries, which first became apparent after the start of the special operation in Ukraine, remains at the same level. Just like in real life, the Global South continues to dominate the conference.
Working languages: Russian, English.
ℹ️ Information for the media: Dear journalists, to be accredited for the event, please fill out the form on our web site. Accreditation closes on November 1 at 12:00 noon Moscow Time (GMT+3). If you have any questions about the event, please call +79269307763.

🌍🌐 The expansion of BRICS in 2024 has undoubtedly increased Africa’s weight in international affairs and contributed to the ongoing discussion on the complexities of multipolarity.
As new regional players Egypt and Ethiopia have joined the group, both South Africa and northeast Africa are represented in BRICS, opening possibilities for deeper interstate ties, as well as new financial agreements on the establishment of logistics routes. This could potentially lead to a reduction in financial risks and attract large investments to the region.
Expanding the African presence in BRICS is also seen as beneficial to each BRICS country individually: China and India as the two largest investors in Africa, while Russia as a political force that is interested in moving the world towards multipolarity, and Brazil is a country that has a special historical connection with Africa.
How the objective strengthening of the continent’s global position will correlate with these pragmatic demands and whether there is room for more African voices in BRICS is discussed by Daria Zelenova, Head of the BRICS African Strategy Centre, Institute for African Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 Amid the current regional realities, agreement on the maritime border is becoming less and less advantageous for Lebanon and Israel.
Two incidents involving the detonation of communication devices, the liquidation of the Hezbollah Secretary General, and the IDF's operation Northern Arrows most aptly reflect the situation on the Lebanese-Israeli border over a period of just over a month.
Against this background, the "historic" agreement on the demarcation of the maritime border, signed two years ago and designed to pave the way for reconciliation between the two warring states, has remained in the shadows.
The reason for such inattention could be a complex array of foreign economic and domestic political factors that have predetermined the inability of the deal on the division of gas fields to contribute to preventing escalation, writes Elizaveta Yakimova.
