Australia urges G20 to continue cooperating with Russia despite US sanctions ― RT Business

Australia wants Western countries to continue cooperating with Russia within the G20 framework, Prime Minister Tony Abbott said on the sidelines of the B20 summit, after the US and EU agreed new sanctions on Russia.

“The G20 is an economic forum, but not a forum on security issues. Therefore the opportunities for cooperation in the field of economy remain stable regardless of what one country can think of other countries or their actions on the geopolitical arena,” Euronews quotes Abbott’s speech at the B20 Australia Summit.
