YOGYAKARTA - Russian President Vladimir Putin, who was originally rumored to be attending the G20 Summit in Nusa Dua, Bali, failed. President Putin then appointed Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to attend the event. The following is Sergey Lavrov's profile briefly.

Sergey Viktorovich Lavrov is one of Russia's politicians and now serves as Russian Foreign Minister. He was born on March 21, 1950 in Moscow, Russia. Sergey Lavrov served as Russia's ambassador to the United Nations from 1994 to 2004. After that he became Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia from 2004 until now.

Sergey Lavrov's background is quite well located. He was born to the family of Armenia's father from Tbilisi, RSS Georgia, while from the mother's side he came from Noginsk, RSFS Russia. The mother also has an interest in politics, which at that time worked at the Soviet Ministry of Foreign Trade.

In the field of education, Sergey Viktorovich is known as a smart boy. He is also interested in physics. Unfortunately his interest was not channeled properly. Instead, he entered the Moscow State Institute of International Relations and graduated in 1972. One year before his graduation, 1971, Lavrov married Maria Lavrov.

Lavrov's career immediately stepped up after he finished college and was immediately placed at the Soviet embassy in Sri Lanka as an advisor because he holds the title of state specialist. At that time the Soviet Union and Sri Lanka established market and economic cooperation. This position made Lavrov reportedly able to speak Sinhala, the original Sri Lankan language. But he decided to quit in 1976.

After that Lavrov returned to Moscow and looked for another job. However, fate still brought him to politics. He was appointed the senior Soviet adviser to the United Nations in New York, United States in 1981. Although he was appointed deputy foreign minister in 1992, Levrov was again stationed in New York in 1994 as Russia's permanent representative for the United Nations.

Levrov was only appointed Secretary of State in 2004. Putin's appointment was made to replace Igor Ivanov. The figure of Levrov himself at that time was considered very good by the West. He is even said to be familiar with former US foreign minister John Kerry.

The mass of Lavrov's position is quite long. Even at the age of 70, Lavrov was still appointed by Putin to come to the G20 Summit in Bali. However, there were rumors that Lavrov was rushed to the hospital while in Bali. The news circulated in several online news media. In response to this, the local authorities denied.

Quoted from nytimes, the Governor of Bali, I Wayan Koster explained that Lavrov visited the hospital only for regular examinations and medical results stated that he was healthy. A spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, also said that the message telling Lavrov's health condition was also fake.
