一 | A retired Indian Air Marshall has told Sputnik that it is already “evident” that the developing countries don’t support anti-Russia sentiments of the G7 club, further arguing that most of the ‘Global South’ even holds the US and its allies “responsible” for precipitating the Ukraine crisis as well as its knock-on effects which led to global energy instability.,“The rest of the world is smarter in understanding than the western countries on how the [Ukraine conflict] emerged and who are the causal factors for this particular problem,” said Air Marshal (retired) Muthumanikam Matheswaran, who heads the Indian think-tank Peninsula Foundation.,Matheswaran has also served in the past as deputy chief of India’s Integrated Defense Staff (IDS).,“Around two-thirds of the world is not cooperating with the western countries’ push to support Ukraine or to condemn Russia. I think that they see that the issue is far more complex,” the former fighter pilot added.,Russia has said that NATO’s eastward expansion into Europe around Russian borders was the major reason for the launch of the special military operation in Ukraine. China has backed Moscow in holding NATO responsible for the Ukraine crisis.,India has kept its counsel over its Western partners, though New Delhi's permanent representative to the UN has appealed for diplomacy and dialogue in the crisis.,Meanwhile, the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) nations have decried unilateral sanctions against Russia. BRICS nations make up 41 percent of the world's population, 24 percent of international GDP, and accounts for 16 percent of global trade.,“[The developing nations] actually hold the West responsible for the present crisis. Therefore, I don’t think that the ‘Global South’ is with them at all,” Matheswaran remarked.,The observations came a day after the G7 Summit in Germany concluded. A joint communique issued after the meeting called for “phasing out or banning the import of Russian coal and oil” from the global energy chain, even despite its recognition that the “burden” of rocketing energy prices has resulted in “market instability” and aggravated “inequalities nationally and internationally”.,Oil Prices Up Another 2% on Signs UAE, Saudi Arabia Have Maxed Out ProductionYesterday, 00:55 GMT,Crude oil prices have been at their highest level since the 2008 global financial crisis in the wake of the US and European Union (EU)-led attempts to phase out Russian crude supplies from the international market in retaliation for Moscow’s special military operation in Ukraine.,The G7 leaders also said in their joint statement that the western allies would “reduce reliance on civil nuclear and related goods from Russia”.,Food prices have soared around the world after West-led efforts to ban Russian exports in March. The UN-backed World Food Programme (WFP) warned last week that “millions of people across the world are at risk of being driven into starvation".,G7 Could Worsen Global Energy and Food Shortages,Matheswaran reckoned that additional sanctions against Russia, as mooted in the G7 statement, could exacerbate the present crisis, which has led to high levels of inflation throughout developed and developing countries.,“Russia is not a small country that can be downsized with sanctions. It is a nuclear power and the world’s largest country with an enormous number of resources. Much of Europe depends on Russian oil and gas as well as its resources,” the Indian expert said.,“So, western powers need to find different solutions if they want to resolve their conflict with Russia. They must not coerce or push the rest of the world for their own, narrow objectives,” argued Matheswaran.,“It will cause more issues with food security, economic downturn,” he added.,Further, the member of the think-tank lauded Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not backing down on New Delhi’s decision to buy discounted Russian crude against the backdrop of a spike in global prices.,Russian Energy Supplies to India Have Increased 'Dozens of Times', Russian Ambassador Says27 June, 15:02 GMT,Modi told his G7 counterparts that India would “continue” to pursue its “energy security”, amid sustained pressure from Washington and Brussels on New Delhi to reduce its reliance on Russian oil.,G7 is ‘Irrelevant’, BRICS and G20 need to Step Up To Their Role,Matheswaran said that the G7 no longer represented the realities of the contemporary world order and groupings such as the G20 and BRICS were better equipped to deal with the problems facing the global community.,Indonesia, at present chairing the G20, has rejected calls by western governments to exclude Moscow from this year's G20 Summit in Jakarta.,“The G7 is irrelevant in today’s global structure. What should matter is groupings such as the G20, which reflects the larger global community and rationalizes economic processes across the world,” he said.,New Development Bank’s Success in West Depends on BRICS Risk-Taking Ability on Governance: Economist25 June, 11:18 GMT,“The G7 is pretty much a collection of countries which are erstwhile imperial powers and they continue to, albeit in a different manner, practice that same process,” he said.,“They dominate the global economic system and they want everyone else to tailor their policies and structures to bring in benefits to the G7,” the Indian academic added.,Matheswaran said that BRICS, which also held an online leaders’ summit days before the G7 meeting, needs to step up to its role in global economic, political and security decision-making.,He noted that other developing countries such as Argentina, which has also applied for BRICS’ membership, must also be embraced.,Matheswaran also reckoned that the “privileged access” of G7 democracies to financial institutions such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank needed to be “downsized and rationalized”.。 您有没有碰到过这种情况：出门想要乘坐地铁，刷了卡进了站，结果还没上车，发现忘带了东西要回去取，可是再刷卡同一站点甚至同一个闸机出去，就被扣了三块钱。虽然不是什么大钱儿，但这明明自己还没“起步”，可是地铁“起步费”却先收了，心里或多或少还有点儿别扭。
二 | 其实类似的情况还有不少，比如有人进错了站，有人走错了地铁出口，还有人在半途中需要上厕所，而厕所在扣费闸机之外等等。同站进出，并未乘车，却被扣费，有公众对此提出异议，认为地铁这样的规定不合理。 近期，上海地铁的一项新规引发关注：乘客临时有需求在同一站点进出，只要时间在10分钟以内，可至车站服务中心进行人工处理，就可免去3元钱的费用。这一人性化的规定，赢得了很多市民和网友的点赞。这种做法值得不值得提倡？是不是应该成为各个城市的“地铁标配”呢？ 先来看看上海地铁为何会出台这项同站进出"限时免收费"新规？它其实源于一位大学生发起的维权诉讼。一起来了解下。
三 | 大学生罗雨洁在上海徐家汇地铁站出站时发现走错了出口，她再次刷卡进站，又在徐家汇地铁同站不同出口刷卡出站，而这趟“寻找出口”的过程被扣除了3元“乘车费”。小罗认为，地铁短时间“同站进出”扣费的规则并不合理，且没有尽到提示、说明义务。之后，她和同学在上海市主要地铁枢纽站进行了调研，发现不同地铁站的工作人员操作不同，解答也不一致，而且在上海地铁站官网，小罗也没有查找到关于“同站进出”的收费依据。 去年7月，小罗将上海地铁运营公司诉至法院，请求法院判决确认该公司的“0公里票价为3元”为无效格式条款，并请求法院判令地铁公司返还车费3元，上海市铁路运输法院受理了此案。
四 | 随后，在调解过程中，上海地铁公司委托诉讼代理人向小罗说明了解决案涉票务问题的举措。最终小罗同意调解，并撤回了起诉，上海地铁退回小罗3元钱车费。 华东政法大学学生 罗雨洁：其实我们是支持短时间内同站进出不收费，但是我们不支持“同站进出”不收费，因为会导致一些逃票事情发生。比如说他可以从一站坐到另一站再坐回来，如果没有时间限制的话，他这样再坐回来，那也是不收费的，这样就不是特别合理。 前不久，上海市地铁官方网站的“票务处理说明”栏进行了更新，明确“乘客进站10分钟内取消乘车的，出站前需主动至本站服务中心办理；超过10分钟或非本站进站不予受理。”乘客原本需要支付3元的同站进出费用，就此调整为“0元”。
五 | 内地55个城市开通轨道交通覆盖约3亿人口 看来，这一人性化的规定，也赢得了很多市民和网友的点赞。那么其他城市做得怎么样呢？据交通运输部公布数据，截至去年底，我国内地共有55个城市开通运营城市轨道交通，覆盖我国约3亿城区人口。以地铁为代表的城市轨道交通，成为城市居民出行的重要工具。那么全国是不是很多地方都存在同站进出扣费的情况呢？我们的记者对这55个城市的轨道交通规则进行了梳理后发现，目前仅有苏州、上海、杭州三地公示了乘客刷卡进站后取消乘车的该如何进行处理，其他城市关于“同站进出”如何收费，政策不一。
六 | 同站进出地铁如何收费各地政策尚不统一 《苏州轨道交通票务规则》在2023年6月更新版中明确： 乘客进站10分钟内取消乘车的，出站前需主动至本站客服中心办理免费更新或者退票业务； 超过10分钟或非本站进站不予受理。 《杭州地铁票务规则》在2023年12月更新版中注明： 乘客进闸后10分钟内取消乘车的，出闸前需主动至进闸站客服中心办理，超过10分钟的不予受理。 记者又分别致电一些尚未在票务规则中就“同站进出”地铁如何收费的城市地铁服务热线，查询“同站进出”地铁能否退费，各地反馈的政策不一。 进地铁站上个厕所要付费？ 也有一些城市的地铁客服人员提到，不少乘客进站其实是想用卫生间，但尴尬的是，有些城市地铁站里的卫生间是在收费区。这才导致有人买票进站“付费”上厕所。针对这种情况，一些地方也尝试服务改革，将地铁资源共享给更多市民。
七 | 据记者梳理，郑州、洛阳、青岛、西安、武汉、昆明、合肥、石家庄、常州、金华等地轨道交通已经开展“公厕共享”服务。在洛阳地铁1号线和郑州地铁2号线的站台服务中心，记者都见到了类似的“便民服务卡”。车站工作人员表示，市民游客不需支付地铁进站费用，只需要借用此卡，便可以进站如厕。 郑州地铁2号线工作人员 王晓茹：比如说乘客他在站外不想乘车，但是他有使用卫生间的需求，也是为了资源共享，然后会给乘客提供一些便利。 地铁运营正经历从“管理至上”到“服务至上” 有研究交通领域政策的学者表示，地铁运营方关于“同站进出”是否收费、如何收费，正经历着从“管理至上”到“服务至上”的演变。
八 | “管理至上”基于地铁运营方管理的便利度，而“服务至上”则体现着将乘客利益最大化摆在首位。
九 | 中国政法大学法与经济学研究院教授 张卿：我觉得这确实体现了从“管理至上”到“服务至上”。 东南大学交通法治与发展研究中心执行主任 顾大松：我觉得“同站进出”免费的确是个好事。但是一定要有一个规则，用一些标准规范来引导，比如说像国家标准。甚至在国家标准的基础上，有一些地方的规则、更好的地方标准，通过科学的标准来引导；第二个方面，允许公众更多地参与（合规性探讨），来推动。使得我们一些友好型的一些公共基础设施进行调整、改善。 （总台央视记者 梁铮铮 马力 洪臻妍 夏周周 杨滢）。
