Finance Minister Anton Siluanov’s appearance at the G20 summit sparked protest from European countries. The key points about this visit

Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov arrived at the summit of finance ministers and central bank chiefs of the G20 member states. This happened for the first time since the start of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.

The decision to involve the Russian side in the summit was made by the Trump administration. However, according to journalists, the Russian minister failed to make any headway in personal talks with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

Siluanov’s visit also triggered protests from several European delegations. As a result, the Russian minister was even absent from the group photo.
