- The BRICS countries have long seen themselves as a counterweight to Western hegemony. Now with Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa looking to throw open the doors of their exclusive club to new members, could it become a genuine rival?

Even Americans are sick of America's mess.
Americans are only sick when the mess affects them. They could not care less when it was harming other nations.
Americans aka including those migrants from south America voted the American government into power.
You get the government you deserve.
@@robertgrey6101 they were lied to about fair equity, housing, resources and sharing wealth. Americans put their puppets in power in these countries to serve American interests only. The only ones that get rich are the elites and the puppets. Everybody else including American citizens get poorer every year. Remove the African stuff and put your own citizens in their place. Rich elites and politicians hog all the wealth to themselves. How else would 1% have the combined wealth of 99% of the world?
u r sure about that? Is that why they voted for Biden, or Trump? They should have considered RFK or Bernie. They are more peaceful and more focus on their own people rather than poking around other people's business. So Americans do have a choice, yet they chose not to care of their own economy and their people, but focusing on other nation's infrastructure. So conclusively speaking, I don't think the average Americans are sick of the mess they are in. Either they don't know, or they have a higher priority on other people's business.
Americans are like spoiled kids. Never happy, just slap em.
BRICS+++ one big family for peace freedom business and independent.

BRICS... Evil 😈 dictators 😅

BRICS Plus are all interested in trades and not wars. Why should countries be sanctioned by the US unilaterally just because the US believes that it is the world police? If the US dollar was made as the reserve currency, so the US dollar can also be made not as the reserve currency just as easily. If there is will, there is a way.
Russia thinks "sphere of influence" trumps sovereignty of nations. Sorry, the former Eastern Bloc is not the property of Russia, despite what Putin wishes. Those countries turned to the West because they know all about Russia.
Agree. Divestment from dollar debt has begun.
You're absolutely right. No more Master of Sanctions & Hegemonies 🇺🇲 * 🇬🇧 * 🇪🇺 😈💀👿
I know right, imagine sanctions for countries invading other countries, we should have no laws at all, people should be allowed to kill and steal at will.. that will show em
US is not the world police, rather the world bully.🙄 This is why people are worried 😟 and making moves to protect themselves from the West and to make new Allies. 😮
WHAT MAKES BRICS SO SPECIAL, IS MULTI NATIONS AND RACES. GOD BLESS BRICS FOREVER. LOVE FROM SENEGAL 🇸🇳❤ 🌍🙏
Putin physically absence is his deliberate decision not to put South Africa into a difficult situation, especially its security. This is the traits of a wise man.
The most irrational interpretation I ve ever heard 😂
All he cares it's himself,after killing his opponents , he is afraid to travel anywhere.. and there is an arrest warrant, he is an international criminal.
@@lukaszk8321That is a very irrational interpretation only from a belief in Western propaganda and spite. Read 📚 more and educate yourself...
@@Give_Peace_a_Chance123 sure - do you have a books or videos to recommend?
@lukaszk8321 😂 Your comment didn't age well. Check out Putin's last visit in Arabia penisula last week .😂
@shudderanlookaway you got vindicated . 💯
The guess it's right BRICS is all about trading in any currency other than dollar.
Yes go go BRICS trade In other currencies .... SAUDI ARABIA AND GULF STATES AND OTHERS JOIN BRICS
@@FC-vp9ejremember the death of the u.s. is the death of the world ☢️
More precisely it is about trading with ones currency.
Trading with ones currency is natural.
Trading using someones currency is aberrant.
Any currency, they can let you trade with yours under a One block currency 😂😂😂as long it's not dollar
@@jirik2435 US dollars are funny money , backed by guns.
Two words to make any British economist shut up; 'Suez Canal'

No one likes war, aggression. We are committed to working together, growing together and thinking about our people
*BRICS* means
B - Better
R - Reliability
I - Innovation
C - Cooperation
S - Synergy
❤👏👏👏❤
You must be kidding! What a joke if you think China is going to cooperate with these smucks, the Chinese are just looking to get whatever they can get for free.😂
The Lukewarm support the west has given Ukraine shows the world that status of the west has greatly changed.
The west is trying to avoid this becoming a major conflict that pulls the whole world in. Trust me. None of us want a world war.
Resistance by West to any reform of key multilateral international institutions such as the Security Council, IMF, WHO WB, and others despite calls from the Global South has pushed these countries to look to for alternative institutions. That is what BRICS represents. The second issue is the issue of SWIFT and sanctions.
The kind of sanctions imposed on Russia by the West scared a lot of countries in the Global South. More than the West realises.The wide range of sanctions opened the eyes of many to see just the extent to which they are more vulnerable than Russia is. The move to establish alternative payments system is in response to sanctions and need to be able to survive similar sanctions.
The end of West Dominance is here. Welcome BRICS
😂
❤ This is well done. We are praying for God's interventions to improve our world because the way to the lord is our beginning of Wisdom. Thank God for the poor people shall smiles again ❤
Bye bye evil empire 😅😅 run now
So we replace one “evil” empire with another? No thank you. I’ll take something better than both if we’re making any change.
Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know !!
@@robertgrey6101no 😈😈😈😈 please. ANYTHING is better than the US
God bless BRICS+
BRICS will need all the blessings God can give plus a hell of a lot more.
allah doesn't exsit. Muhammed ( laanat be upon him ) was a disgusting person.
@robert...start packing your tent broer
January 2024 will become the festival of the New Year in world Peace ✌️❤️
Go BRICS go
Jump ftom the frying pan into the fire.
Great move!!
Now Argentina, Egypt, Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iran was admitted as new members in BRICS
Finally the most maginalized population of the poorest in our planet living in the BRICK countries for over 300 years. Might get a chance to enjoy a lil bit of progress.
BRICS - BRICS is the hope of dominated people for a free equal right world.
Let's hope that BRICS become symbol of hope and aspiration of dominated people of the world.
BRICS Plus brings hope to a better future outside the grip of US hegemony
The BRICS consist of developing countries, and these countries have desire to have their independent but they are suppressed by the west in all aspect. Example if they fall out of line they will be warned or sanctioned, or worst their leader replaced. The west had been rich at the back of these countries cheap labour, raw material, fuels, etc. by keeping the developing countries poor for centuries. There are some African & developing nations still have no clean or convenient water, electricity, connectivities, basic infrastructure, etc..BRICS provide an alternative and these countries like is principle or policies and show interest to join.
0:01: 🌍 The BRICS countries are looking to expand their group and become a global rival to Western dominance, with more than 40 countries applying to join.
4:49: 🌍 South Africa plays an important role in the BRICS conference, aiming to balance foreign interests and serve as a gateway to Africa.
8:21: 🌍 The BRICS countries are discussing the possibility of creating their own currency, but it is unlikely to be successful without the support of China and Russia.
16:26: 🌍 Russia is walking a tightrope in its diplomatic efforts to expand its influence in Africa, including with countries like Nigeria.
21:37: 🌍 China's involvement in the BRICS group and its expansion into Africa and other regions is seen as complementary to its Belt and Road Initiative and its commitment to trade and development.
24:08: 🌍 Russia is disappointed with the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and has concerns about its effectiveness, but is still interested in initiatives to enhance trade with China and rebuild infrastructure.
Recap by Tammy AI
HOPEFULLY YES !❤
Why should it be either BRICS or the West should dominate? Both can prosper if willing to work together, mutually respecting each other uniqueness. Just don't try to convert others to your political philosophy as if it is morally superior.
Ur last sentence reminds me of America
In the new Multipolar World, BRICS+ is only one of the groups in competition as well as complimenting the other groups for humanity with a shared future
Kind words titillate us and diplomatic niceties is pleasing to the ears. Having said that, let the BRICS / ETC. WALK THE TALK in accelerating the Global Economy . Can BRICS withstand pressures from USA, EUROPE & OTHER ALLIES?
Beginning of dawn
BRICS IS 2 WAY PAYMENT SISTEMS 🇿🇦🇿🇦💪💪
It's over for the West goodbye to America arrogant
Really, your pretty naive if you think this will change anything.
When someone against you, in some sense you're doing the right thing
Thank you President Putin and all the valiant Russian soldiers....and all awakening mankind for your great great sacrifice in liberating mankind from the deathly jaws of the dying Babylon the Great, the mother of all the harlots and of the disgusting things of the Earth (US hegemony).WHAT A PRICE TO PAY. BUT, WHAT A PRICELESS GIFT🙏
May the GREAT HARLOT OF BABYLON-USA and its vassals DECOMPOSE inside out!
Glory to Xi jinping and powerful BRICS for laying the foundations of a new world order!
You are having the joke of the year ?? Yes ??
Imagine an 'independent risk consultant' like that lady being so ignorant of the region she's supposed to discuss about 😂
West is allready sacred 😂😂
The west is falling apart Australia has a 2 trillion dollar foreign debt and the AUD is collapsing especially against Brazilian Real down 30% and huge homeless crisis, hyperinflation and unemployment. Aboriginal people are still treated very poorly in Australia. Watch 'In My Blood it Run" as this boy's story shows the truth - Aboriginal children are still secretly stolen from their mothers and put in jails across Australia. Shameful. Australia is good in covering up their terrible human rights abuse and pointing the finger at China. Boycott all Australian products in China.
Trading using ones own currency is natural.
Trading using someone elses currency is an aberration.
….Sure didn’t take long for S Africa to go from the strongest economy in Africa - to one of the worst under self-rule

Yup, heavily condemned by the west as usual.

Give some time.
Its an economic cooperative alliance much like EU. It's not talking over from anyone.
Why talk about the Putin not attending is a big deal that that would kill BRICS.The point is what BRICS can do to the new world not Putin.
But still if BRICKS doesn't form one currency like USA still dollar with continue it's international currency hegemony.

British brokies' news, almost nonsense.
BRICS FIRST TAKE CARE ABOUT DOUBLE CROCEERS IN NEW FRIENDS. EU AND USA MAY PLAY DIUBLE GAME.TAKE CARE AND BEST OF LUCK.
Chinese are not afraid to agree with fair rules / policies as all members are of the same mind. If a members want bad rules / policies, China can just don't deal with that member and that member would be worst off.

India is not present, neither is Brazil which renders this conversation useless except for the Chinese representative who made sense to me. The Estonian guy ????? Marisa Lourenço did a good job but had little knowledge.
Stupid
India and china not in G7 . china and india , number2 and 3 in terms of GDP , why thoise 2 not in G7. it explain WEST game. BRICS has poor to rich countries. wake up call? it is matter of tiem south kore and japan align with BRICS
Actually, India is number 5. When the G7 was formed, India was fairly isolationist otherwise it could have possibly be a member. South Korea and Japan have just signed a new defense treaty with the US, and Japan is a founding member of the G7.

Whats with this Russia China tunnel vision by which the BRICs summit is being viewed out there?
These countries are large arable land, commodities, gas, oil, wheat, nuclear weapons, tech, manpower, cash rich, why would they listen and follow rules dictated by others?
Usa have done very bad during last decades. There people dont have enough income for such expensive country. People dont have medical, house, even jobs are paid badly. Many Usa citizen will move to Brics countries.
Not defecult of Russia...coming soon countries who depend on US dollars?you'll know soon
Why is there no black African on your panel?

Frankly speaking, if the international naughty boy US behave himself , the bloc nght not be formed.😀

The citizens of these countries enjoy high levels of income, massive freedom of movement, unparalleled freedom of speech and expression of ideas even if they are contrary to the offical veiw of the friendly and benevolent governments and a very long life expectancy.😂😂😂. Poor bastardsn😢😢😢.
This is an example of the hatred colonial view of the rest of the world they destabilized for their benefit

Freedom of speech like in Ukraine where the government carried out the genocide against Donbass.

For being powerful and influential one needs mainly 3 things: Economy, military & Space Program. Now BRICS is fortunate or you can say smart because it have economically strong & growing countries (China & India), miltarily it have Russia, China & India and luckily BRICS also have two space powers China & India. BRICS have almost everything it needs to be a dominant group except one thing stability between two of its most important members India and China, only if China quit its expansionist and authoritarian behaviour BRICS will truly become a dominant alliance of countries.
China can't be trusted..you are stupid
Russia and China are the key players in BRICS, expanding membership, establishing NDB, deploying strategies…India seems a proxy player, belonging to neither G7 nor the developing world . None takes an opportunist seriously.
''ts expansionist and authoritarian behaviour'' I think you describe US not China, the country who loves war, make others countries instable around the world is US not China hahaha.
sorry no offense to u . yes i am chinese by nature , but from singapore . I have worked in india , but sorry to say your country is too fragmented , too much things hold you guys back from being economically on par with china . Its not about the race , its jus your people are more balanced humans . you value culture , history , religions , and generally want to live a somewhat easy and peaceful life . i mean thats great . also the skilled labour and efficiency just isnt there . the corruption is really bad , china has too but u know how they are trying to clamp it down . when i worked in india , the workers couldnt meet deadlines . it always " tomorrow " . workers are just not as efficient as china's and you know the chinese really work like dogs 24hrs ...haha yes i am not saying its right . maybe china will suffer these repercussions in the future . i do however think potentially India has a really good chance to compete with china , but not in the next 20-30 years ...probably after that .
