Meeting of Finance Ministers "Big Eight"

This year, for the first time, Russia chairs the G8 (hereinafter referred to as the G8). Within the framework of Russia's presidency, many interstate meetings and consultations are held. In particular, a meeting of G8 finance ministers was held in St. Petersburg on June 9-10, 2006. The G8 is a group of the most economically developed and politically significant countries in the world, which largely determines the main trends in the world economy and politics. At regular meetings, the G8 countries develop coordinated economic and financial policies and consider the most important foreign policy issues. During the meetings, the G8 countries actually determine the main guidelines for the world economic community. The key issues for discussion are: energy security, problems of relations with developing countries, including issues of ensuring their sustainable development, East-West economic relations, globalization of the world economy, increasing economic growth rates and international trade, macroeconomic management, employment, and the fight against terrorism. The decisions taken by the G8 reflect the vision of the main international economic and foreign policy problems of the G8 itself and are formalized in the form of a final statement, which is the main political document of the summits. Holding meetings on the territory of the Russian Federation will allow Russia to increase the confidence of the member countries of the group and other world powers, international financial and economic organizations, business circles, investors, and will contribute to the creation of a favorable investment climate.
