Путин зове за обединени усилия срещу терористичната заплаха

Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that combating militant attacks would make a strong feature in the G20 summit agenda, calling for BRICS cooperation in "combatting terrorism" during an informal meeting of the organisation's representatives in Antalya, Sunday. Putin's comments on the sidelines of the G20 summit follow Friday's Paris attacks which killed 129 people and injured hundreds more. Putin told the BRICS leaders that the cooperation in fighting terrorism and the solution to the migration problem would be a point of focus, specifically in the framework of BRICS coordinated foreign policy. In regards to the Paris attack, the Russian leader stated "we sympathise with the victims, but we always stand for uniting the efforts for effectively combating terrorism." Leaders of the Group of Twenty (G20) are due to gather in Antalya from Sunday, November 15, to Monday, November 16, to discuss global economy issues and ways to boost global growth. The refugee crisis and the fight against the so-called Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are also expected to be on the agenda. The G20 is an international forum where governments and central bank governors from 20 major economies give their opinions on the global situation. Members include 19 individual countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom and the United States, along with the European Union (EU).
