The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) has baffled several foreign media outlets. According to the BBC, they describe the event as absurd and label both Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Western guests invited by the Kremlin as strange.

The reports highlight the bizarre mix of Russian propaganda and Western participation. Despite Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, the Kremlin invited some Western businesspeople and politicians to St. Petersburg.
