In europe that can become in some way mediators or those who can send a message across the atlantic for them to a lot of messages were already sent by the way or european friends of the United States in the recent months so there is nothing to it so once again it is december 29th being and economic punishment against russia is back in the headlines so this time around what is the biggest threat for the russian economy is it once again sanctions or uncertainty or volatility in the commodity market what can you say well of course there is a number of negative trends that are coming from the Global Economy would change impacting russian economy as ive said through this year is the weakest here in terms of economy girls in store and that is of course impacting the peace of god also for our exports in real terms in the in the terms of those who are being hit by the lower Commodity Prices some on the different come what is starting from oil metals call and so on so force of course this impacts those fish and the good thing is that because of the introduction of if you school for inflation targeting Flexible Exchange trade were much more protected from the Civil Liberties you but of course with this having a negative impact on us mr rushton let me bring up Something Else the trade agreement between washington and beijing how much of a sigh of relief is it really for russia and the rest of the world but of course if it were just a little bit and they could see if. Trends that we during the whole year you can see it once again in Commodity Prices more chance of global trade will show where the performance Going Forward but youre clearly when youre naming the. Because what we believe in that the problems with him United States and shane that are very long term in the church so we see more conflicts not only in treaty a but they can happen in many other areas within the next several years maybe next year especially the 1st couple with will be a more calm we should be of course put it for the Global Economy and for russia as the particle of the Global Economy but once again this is more a longer term story and we see more disputes coming from those 2 countries and impacting the global story in the coming years can we talk about a long term story when we do realize that once again we are coming into the new election cycle in the us well of course the elections they are forcing the kind of the means 3 ssion to find solutions in different areas because what kind of communication one sees economy to continue to grow what kind of the station once the stock market you know will that. Place tweeting about the new highs that we have we can see on the u. S. Market of course he wants this trend to continue it will into the next year so different that this will be good to reminding the parties in different areas of the actions of the. Administration and of course on the other side the congress which is controlled by the Democratic Party will be using all the parties to spoil that game because you know they competing they will be competing me they said trump in the elections in november of next year so theyre still fighting forces who visited my how the u. S. Will be actually in and yes one of the 2 largest to call them is global youth those this will be impacting the overall picture in the Global Economy sharp. Let me bring up the loan that russia received earlier this month the 500000000. 00 loan for. The beijing bears based Asian InfrastructureInvestment Bank what kind of signal is that and why is russia getting this low will this is this loan is thought to be links to Infrastructure Projects that are being released. In russia you know will the number 3 shareholder in the. Bank for Infrastructure Development so it means that we are playing is all of the in the bank you know the story of developing the infrastructure will that there is little free sources local for the vestments infrastructure globally and this bank was created to try to at least get the closed so were working with the bank its a normal project for the bank its the deal in the russian so you know part of the global story here but if we take. In particular we do remember that during the russia africa summit billions of dollars worth of debt have been written off for african countries and here we have a sum of 500000000. 00 so what is this just a matter of prestige a matter of testing boilers it will be a deal in the least and so we are working so this is the deal that is using this over embellish it but we will be working with a company of slate question that always other companies to find more. Interesting story to finance them the finding coming from the asian bank who put in for Structure Development so once again its only the beginning of the long term work to finance more Infrastructure Projects and rush the many trips that you completed in 2019 we saw you together with president Vladimir Putin in different corners of the world in terms of fruits that russia could bear from all these trips and we talk specifically. What your in charge which ones were the most important ones and what did you take away from them will each creepers were important because you know that like i said russias pick a few though russia is the part of the Global Economy so having joined projects was different than countries across the globe. Explaining trade trade in goods trade and Services Investment strain technological approaches so in every country we can find what is russia can do together with that country and of course among the most important i would say the brics i mean that the recently happened in brazil the receipts to. The Arab Emirates the visits to china so you know japan all major markets are definitely important and you know having proper discussion of the economic agenda is the way to look for but the success of the russian economy when we take breaks and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization we know that russias taken over in terms of hosting the summits. What will russia bring in this time around if we take cooperation with these groups well in the breaks for example next year we will have a break segment happening in sync because a book in the middle of summer and we will be proposing we have already proposed to have a new Economic Strategy for the next 5 years we were conducting this same story 5 years ago in this summit that was happening in russia 5 years ago so we want to do you know the 6 of them instead the general 2 of course there is the full support of all the brakes. On the global trade situation on the joint development of the project so we want to highlight those areas and. Even. More work but it was what was already achieved. In the last 5 year cycle for example one of the stories that was achieved its of course creating all the bricks that is already funding the projects all of. The brics countries including russia so all those instruments that create that during the bust cycle the radio so we need to make a step forward so this is what will be discussed. Those areas and they know push them to bring. Results. And stacey are continuing our american tour and as you can see behind me we are in Rio De Janeiro so beautiful so much going on this is a country in transition. Live. Play. Lists lists lists.

Told a truth. Theres a. Mr rush let me stick to integration but a very different one between russia and belarus and can you please help explain our western audience mainly because they dont know much about it what is going on why do high profile officials from both countries meet so often right now whats going on in general will go all question its Pretty Simple they want to have 2 so were in the countries in the one Single Market with them so what were discussing we have deed in the some quarters away extensive work in the lazing the difference in approach is some different markets different regulation so we were highlighting what can be changed what can be adjusted and actually the stories that were trying to take the best from the belorussian experience they are trying to take best promote experience through these discussions that through these you know grecian of Single Market to become stronger together and stronger each country on its own does the west have to watch out for anything thats going on between moscow and minsk this is not our discussions again some someone this is the this is discussion helping both candidates. To become stronger so there is nothing to be afraid of here now moving on from to europe we keep coming back to a comment by yourself when you bring up the you were an ace aunts in terms of how russia is again trying to get along with europe and vice versa this year how far have we gotten will as you may see that in this year with sore more extensive contacts between russia and europe not to me on the business 8 which was at the high level of this is becoming Even Stronger but those on the political level there is one this thing with europeans say the problems that were brought. Externally to europe from the United States with the sanctions story now with the trade wars and so on so force so having more closer contact having discussions finding joint solutions were much more close to that ping was where we were standing a year ago. We understand after the elections in the u. K. That brights it will finally happen. You never know but at least as Boris Johnson put it said hes got to go and he was already pushing you know some of the broken so. Just offer you the seat in the chair reliques in the which. So have you been watching has russia been watching does this send any message to moscow are you looking for if you know other problems the mystically you know or International Clinic relations which were concerned in the in trying to find solutions and is a break a story you know already it kind of you know serial which lists for rebels so we just wishing you know just checking the headlines which what has happened these things on their own so thats thats thats about it let me bring up whats going on with the World Trade Organization we learned that the w t o appellate body stopped functioning whats going on with the reforms there and also how will trade disputes the result from now on well 1st of all d what i would like to tell a that is a very important institute for the Global Economy and actually for russia because. Being part of that will be to help russia to access a lot of markets. On the producer my interims it helped us to protect our rights will bill you know you witnessed weaning one by another because that were hitting the w 2 and. The point of course which is very important that russia is now playing one of the Important Roles in terms of the 3 mining coal the global trade systems will be breaking for the years to come the problem that you mentioned was a playboy you of course you know its a way to big problem for functioning of the double interrogation the position that is being taken by the United States in my opinion is definitely in the proper rate it suppose they will the overall situation so it means that within the next at least one year i believe what exactly are you talking about just because they are blocking. The actually the decisions that theyre made in the. Heading as the direct result of the book working on functioning epilate body and you know having. A body is the crucial part of the process of settlement within the charities ation and of course this doesnt help because this doesnt help because you know that. Once again. You always all those problems because you know finding solutions in the disputes but taking years and this is also not acceptable we should change proceed us you know too fast from them and so on so forth but you know blocking it doesnt help build the whole picture and once again we were discussing already today the problems that were facing with the global trade with the Global Economy and one of the one of the reasons behind it its. Not functioning properly. So is it going to resemble brags it anyhow the pace will of the w t o to some extent its the same story but like with brics it here were trying to play a more Important Role we had trying to help to find a solution which will be a definitely the not easy but you know pushing towards a solution of this so it will be working on needing next year lets move on. Whats happening in russia weve seen an inflation slowdown Interest Rates are steadily being cut last year you promise me that the ruble will get stronger and it is getting stronger and detail how much more room for optimism is still there well i wouldnt say that such as thing seen ruble is an optimism because because its a sign of the weak the money in the domestic economy along with the way the low inflation brings that we are witnessing. Because you know. The ruble is a very good when it comes from the growing Productivity Fund and productivity but when it comes from the weak demand it shows that we achieving results weaker that we can achieve just simply having a strong did you hear them if you could so. Lets say their bank like youve mentioned is already cutting rates this will be eventually translating in some voices to. The. I hope so the government is also working with some solutions to help the. Next year so taking together all those measures should allow us to get back to the. 4 percent thought it gets on the inflation say it Strong Demand stronger girls you know most people will. The world bank kid is predicting a 1. 6 percent of g. D. P. Growth for russia next year does that tie with the expectations that you have when we have the forecast of 1. 00 so all the market expects softly from the same girls here is because there are some. That might bring these if you get a lower and little bit trying to do was to have a few good strong for them. But its always happening like that how much are you satisfied with your old predictions that you once came up with for 2019 well you should tell me because its not me who should lead the way how were forecasting but you know the good thing is that the forecasts for example in goals that weve published a belief in the august of next year we were changing and throughout the year there were criticisms that its too high and it was too little when so and so forth during the whole year the critics who own the bulls say its but eventually were getting to the figures we should close to what were forecasting with the good sign that we have a propane this painting of what is happening within the quantum indeed this year there have been good signs in many aspects but let me just talk about how much Foreign Investors should be keen to invest in this country because there were bad signs a well including the well known calvary case what about the Investment Climate and investment figures this year it is growing you know will this 36. 00 but like always telling you in the asking that question that for us its more important not the quantity of doing flow but quality of hitting the floor and some of the cases might be not to be. Coming to russias economy but you Technology War human jailable which is so that. Hes of much more importance competing with just simple money weve just discussed strengthening so it means that its weight is thrown balance of payments which we are facing these here and was thrown by the payments we do not need to cover a new gapes on the balance of payments say so it means in terms of. Having acknowledges smith in jail approaches all these stuff its much more important than just simply having a stronger employ in terms of quantity over the flows. But like i said this year were getting more if the total sum is increasing but i would just pay less attention on that and more attention on the quality sorry but just to finish up my question has russia a better place to invest this year will the logic stand yes we are not getting the final figures and also from this month activity but we expect that it will be a multiyear high and that was often the best one to g. D. P. Ratio in russia if you look at the ratings. You will find that russia is steadily progressing in the. Global business of doing business by the world and so on so forth of course that has a lot of problems you know a number of big reforms that are underway these days for example the forms supervisory and the which is getting the regulations all the good lucians that we still have and so on so course were trying to do. You know a lot of stuff which will be making the environment even better mr ashton we know that you are a keen sports fan given all the latest headlines that have to do with the russian sport in the recent past how much are you worried about russian athletes well you know well that the you know active lifetime that its. Having on the global scene is way short so having such as toys of course make it painful for you to particular person because you know that your training corot getting a child so you can your use here is and then you have to wait it short period of time like any show way to write is also on the global agenda on the on the on the on the global every minute and of course. Cept for those people which will not be able to do so so why use that clean athletes should be able to be present on the globe already because it will be fair for them. Mr rush can thank you for covering so many stories for us and happy new year thank you happy new year. My name is 2nd on the social media mr jackson what i dont see its a. Little bit older.
