Russian President Vladimir Putin emphasized the importance of reliable business-to-business ties and economic partnerships during the BRICS Business Forum 2026 in New Delhi. He stated that these trade relationships are the backbone of international economic relations and help overcome the global problems facing the world. Putin noted that the world is undergoing profound structural shifts, as the so-called old economic leaders of the 20th century are being replaced by new engines of growth.
He acknowledged that while these old leaders still possess great strengths and significant infrastructure, changes in the global economy cannot be stopped, and the world is always evolving. Putin highlighted that BRICS countries now contribute over 40% of the global GDP, compared to just 29% from the G7. The forum, attended by various dignitaries, serves as a platform for discussing trade, investment, finance, technology, and development challenges shaping the BRICS economic agenda.
