“G20 chair country Indonesia has sent out invitations to all countries to participate.
As for how each of the countries will act, there is such information that the Russian finance minister will participate online, ”RIA Novosti quotes Suzuki.
According to him, all the details are handled by Indonesia.
At the same time, the minister noted that Japan cannot comment on the participation or non-participation of other countries in any way.
In late March, Indonesia said it planned to invite Russian President Vladimir Putin and all other leaders, seeking to "remain impartial" as a host.
US leader Joe Biden has proposed excluding Russia from the G20.
But he acknowledged that this decision is up to the G20 countries.
The press secretary of the Russian leader, Dmitry Peskov, also said that the G20 format is important, but under the current conditions, exclusion from it would be “not fatal” for Russia.
