📰 NEWS | Venezuelan Gov’t Resumes IMF, World Bank Ties, Appoints New Central Bank President Venezuela has resumed official relations with the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank after a seven-year hiatus, both institutions confirmed on Thursday. The move follows recent US recognition of Acting President Delcy Rodríguez and renewed diplomatic engagement. Authorities are prioritizing access to $5.1 billion in IMF Special Drawing Rights and addressing an estimated $170 billion in external debt. On the same day, Venezuela announced a leadership change at its central bank, appointing economist Luis Pérez as president.

🎥 VIDEO | Venezuela and the IMF: Short-Term Relief or Long-Term Pain? Venezuela has reestablished ties with the International Monetary Fund. But what comes next? After years of isolation, Caracas could gain access to roughly $5 billion in Special Drawing Rights, funds it hopes to use to stabilize essential services like electricity and water. In the short term, the move offers relief. In the long term, it raises deeper questions. Venezuela’s external debt is estimated at up to $170 billion, and any broader financial engagement could reopen the door to negotiations with creditors and potential IMF-backed programs. For a country with a long and contentious history with the Fund, the stakes are high: access to liquidity versus the risk of increased financial dependence. Is this a step toward recovery or the beginning of a new cycle of debt? #IMF#CentralBankofVenezuela#USVenezuelaRelations

⚡️Press release on Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s upcoming participation in the G20 Summit On November 18-19, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, will host the #G20 Leaders’ Summit. The Russian delegation will be led by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at the instruction of the head of state. A majority of the G20 member states’ leaders are expected to take part. Brasilia regards the G20 as a core element of the polycentric system of international economic relations, distinguished by an effective decision-making mechanism due to its optimal number of members as well as the principle of consensus. The theme of Brazil’s first ever presidency of the forum is “Building a Just World and a Sustainable Planet.” At the summit, the partners expect to reach consensus agreements, with the process viewed through the prism of the country’s international prestige. A leadership declaration (a non-signature document approved in the absence of objections from the parties) is expected to be the summit’s major practical outcome. <...> Russia has been actively engaged in developing and coordinating the organisational and substantive aspects of the Brazilian project, having already added advanced domestic solutions on food security and poverty eradication into the database. The summit in Rio de Janeiro will open with the launch ceremony of the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty. Russia’s planned official connection to this platform will give it another opportunity to raise issues relevant to the global majority at the international level, in particular, counteracting illegal unilateral sanctions and promoting domestic experience. <...> Russia plays a prominent role in the G20, efficiently influencing the course and direction of negotiations, as well as the content of agreements. Moscow views the platform as an essential forum for global economic governance. The G20 is extensively used to promote Russia’s ideas on the importance of building an open and non-discriminatory global economy, and abandoning unilateral restrictive measures, trade wars and protectionism. Efforts are taken to draw attention to the long-overdue reform of the global governance architecture to benefit emerging markets, with the focus on ending the dominance of Western powers in international financial, economic and trade institutions, de-dollarisation, and increasing the share of settlements in national currencies. <...> Russia has consistently advocated theessential need to depoliticise the G20, which should focus on its direct responsibilities to encourage economic growth and sustainable development. The opponents’ attempts to bring peace and security issues beyond the group’s authority to the G20 agenda are counterproductive; this destructive policy hinders progress in core areas and causes increased division between the members. ❗️Russia views its priority in the G20 as achieving constructive agreements in the forum that consider all member nations’ interests based on consensus. Moscow seeks a proper and balanced understanding of sustainable development goals with due account of the states’ national interests, takes efforts to effectively use the G20 to promote the democratisation of international financial and economic structures, particularly, the #IMF, #WorldBank and #WTO, and makes steps to diversify mutual settlement mechanisms and build independent trans-border supply chains.

#Outcomes2025 🎙Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov during his annual news conferenceon the Russian diplomacy outcomes in 2025(January 20, 2026) 💬Sergey Lavrov: We are witnessing tectonic shifts affecting the entire global order. It is telling that the West, which over the past decade actively sought to oppose international law in its original, principled interpretation with its own concept of a so-called “rules-based world order”, has now largely dropped this term from its vocabulary. All Western European countries are currently trying to make sense of what is happening in the world in the context of the course announced and pursued by the US President, a course that formally fits into the “rules-based order”. The difference is that these “rules” are no longer written by the “collective West”, but by its single representative. For Europe, this has come as a profound shock. We are observing the situation closely. 👉It is clear that the developments we are witnessing, as well as the actions announced by President Trump on the international stage, reflect an intensifying competitive struggle. We have repeatedly spoken about recent trends in global economic development. China, operating within the very rules that the West – led by the US – laid down as the foundation of the globalization model promoted worldwide until recently, has outperformed its Western competitors in trade, the economy, investment and infrastructure projects. China's economic and financial indicators speak for themselves. We see attempts to counter this situation through sanctions, tariffs and duties. The US seeks to negotiate, yet this is happening in the absence of any common criteria that until recently underpinned the work of the #IMF, the #WorldBank and the #WTO. All those rules on which a Western-friendly world order was supposed to be based have effectively been cast aside. ⚔️What is unfolding is a game of “might makes right”. We are all witnessing this. We can discuss how conceptual approaches to world order are changing and how concrete processes are developing in the course of an interactive dialogue. However, the consequences of this line are felt not only by countries of the Global South and East – crisis tendencies are also accumulating within Western societies themselves. Greenland is a clear example. It is on everyone’s lips, and the debates unfolding around it would have been difficult to imagine not so long ago – including discussions about the prospects for NATO’s continued existence as a unified Western military-political bloc. As for Greenland, our position is simple: if Western countries choose to deal with one another “by mob rules”, that is their choice and their right. 🇷🇺 For our part, Russia will conduct relations with all our partners – both from the Global Majority and from among Western countries – who are genuinely interested in engaging with Russia and discussing concrete, mutually beneficial projects ☝️ on the basis of equality. 📺Watch the news conference in full

A further escalation in the Iran war could trigger a global recession that would affect the UK more than any of the other G7 nations, the International Monetary Fund has warned. Against an increasingly volatile backdrop, the Washington-based fund said the economic damage from the Middle East conflict was steadily rising as it cut its growth forecasts for 2026 based on the impact of the war so far. #IMF#War 👂More on Trump's Ear ⚠️
