The Global South and the East are playing a growing role in global decision-making, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in an article published this week.

This trend is becoming more relevant as the West “methodically destroys the very model of globalization it created,” Lavrov said in the article carried by the latest edition of the journal Russia in Global Affairs.

“The global majority understands that confrontation and hegemony will not solve any global problems,” Lavrov said, highlighting the strengthening role of intergovernmental associations in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

“These objective processes will have to be taken into account in the work of the G20, where the G7 can no longer ‘call the tune,'” Lavrov said.
