Russian delegation participates in G20 energy meeting in Houston

RTP Notícias12 September 2026 at 11:03

A Russian delegation will participate in the G20 energy meeting in Houston, United States, next week. The information was confirmed by a diplomat.

The participation comes after a Russian minister's presence at the G20 Finance meeting, held this month, caused discomfort among the remaining members of the group.

The G20 is an international forum that brings together the world's largest economies to discuss global issues, including energy and finance. The Houston meeting will address topics related to the energy sector.

Why this matters

The Russian participation in the G20 energy meeting is significant because it demonstrates that countries continue to include Russia in important international forums, despite geopolitical tensions. The discomfort caused by the presence of a Russian minister at the previous finance meeting shows the existing divisions within the group on the issue, which may affect negotiations on global energy policies.

Indian prime minister calls on BRICS for a roadmap to reform global governance

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi called at the BRICS summit in New Delhi for a roadmap to reform global governance, arguing that the current structure functions as a pyramid where power and decision-making are concentrated at the top, while affected countries lack the capacity to influence. Modi outlined three axes for reform — representation, responsiveness, and norm-making — and stressed that the reform of the United Nations Security Council "can no longer be postponed," demanding negotiations with set deadlines. India, which holds the rotating presidency of the bloc, sought to position BRICS as a platform for reforming the international system and not as a confrontation alliance, arguing that the Global South should cease being merely a recipient of norms to participate in their development.
