The Russian diplomat made the statement on the sidelines of the 2024 St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), which is being held in St. Petersburg from June 5 to 8. Sputnik is the media partner of the forum.
Western countries do not like to pay their debts, but now other times have come, so it is necessary to discuss how the West will compensate Africa for years of bullying and exploitation, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman
Maria Zakharova told reporters on the sidelines of SPIEF 2024.
"In my opinion, it is necessary to really discuss how the West should seriously compensate Africa for, really, centuries of its exploitation, the annihilation of its population, and the plundering of its resources," said Zakharova.
She added that the former
Western colonial powers countries "don't want to do that; they do not pay their debts, they don't return the loot, and they don't recognize themselves as guilty. But other times have come."
According to her, BRICS gives countries the opportunity to receive true equality through their participation and the chance to express their position.
