Speaking to the Emirates News Agency (WAM), Shvydkoy emphasised that the forum, held in Ras Al Khaimah, has become a symbol of constructing a multipolar world — one that is inconceivable without a multi-dimensional, multilateral economy.

He highlighted that Russia remains a key centre of power and influence on the international stage, noting that the forum addresses pressing contemporary issues while exploring future opportunities.

This year’s forum attracted a wide range of participants, from Italian business representatives to delegations from Asia, Africa, Japan, and Saudi Arabia.
