Russian President Vladimir Putin intends to attend a G20 summit in Indonesia later this year, Russia's ambassador to Indonesia said on Wednesday, dismissing suggestions by some G20 members that Russia could be barred from the group.
“Of course expulsion of Russia from this kind of forum will not help these economic problems to be resolved. On the contrary, without Russia it would be difficult to do so.”Putin said Russia is carrying out “a special military operation” to stop the Ukrainian government from committing genocide, an accusation the West calls a baseless fabrication. It calls the"operation" war.
On Tuesday, Poland said it had suggested to US commerce officials that it replace Russia within the G20 group, and that the suggestion had received a “positive response”. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said G20 members would have to decide, but the issue was not a priority.and the G20, it is imperative to discuss this question with the countries involved and not to decide individually,” Scholz said.
