BRICS Law Journal publishes the article by TV&P lawyer analyzing the relevant legal position of Russia as one of the largest exporters of energy-related products, while focusing on cooperation within the BRICS alliance.

The article analyzes the relevant legal position of Russia as one of the largest exporters of energy-related products, while focusing on cooperation within the BRICS alliance. The research reveals a number of key findings: Russia has so far cautiously supported the promotion of renewable energy internationally; nevertheless, it has demonstrated a very restrained approach to the development of legally binding instruments on the matter. The authors conclude that it may be viable to find a reasonable ‘compromise of compromises’ for the evolving international legal regime of renewable energy, and if this were to be accomplished, BRICS could assume a leading international position for the creation of such a legal regime.
