Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin has said he will not attend the Group of 20 summit in Brazil, which is a party to the Rome Statute and would be obliged to arrest him under an International Criminal Court warrant.
As I feel the need to say every time it’s mentioned, BRICS is made-up nonsense fabricated by Goldman Sachs to sell third-rate equities. Think about the relationship between the countries of “BRICS” and ask yourself if that sounds like an actual alliance.
Sorry to say but “BRICS” is far from “made up nonsense” here in Brazil. There’s plenty of export and some industries that got a boost thanks to it, it’s a very real economic block. I don’t know why you would think that it is not real, especially now that we are setting up a payment system to avoid the dollar usage.

Oh really? Let’s take China, the biggest economy in “BRICS”. Here is the history of Brazil’s trade to China. It has of course grown (probably mostly soybeans). You might think that growth is thanks to BRICS.
But wait, what’s this? Canada’s trade with China has grown even more? Is it now BRICCS?

It has become a diplomatic talking shop similar to the G7. There has been pushes from some member states to make it more, including creating alternate financial systems, but it has been slow growing.
Turtalous growth because of the so many differences in political, economical, ideological between the participating countries which results in shitload of epic proportions
Brasil would have arrested him? Aren’t they in BRICS?
TFW you realize countries outside NATO also have rule of law.

This is nowhere near implementation. Putin proposing something doesn’t immediately make it real. It also assumes great stupidity on the part of China and India to tether themselves economically to the sinking ship that is Russia. India in particular is exploiting Russian economic weakness at every opportunity.
Doesn’t seem that way when Lula proposes Putin’s peace plan that only BRICS countries think is fair.

People care about the G7 because they have power and they sometimes agree on important things.
Neither of those are true of the “BRICS”.
China, India, and Brazil are all large countries with large economies, but I agree they don’t have a lot to agree on.
Russia got all pissy with Kazakhstan just this week as a result of them not joining the BRICS
BRIC
KSNothing like fomenting trust in a global financial transaction system by threatening potential user nations.
This is intreresting. What is the connection between GS and BRICs? How does it help them sell equities?
GS diversifying and playing both sides? Just a hunch. G7 has the west… whereas one could argue that the BRICS might evolve into an eastern bloc.
That doesn’t mean much. Iran and Saudi Arabia also are in it and they hate each other.
I thought it was India and South Africa, not Iran and Saudi Arabia
A lot more countries are being invitied to be a member of the intra fighting group known as BRICS.
Putin bruh is forcing other countries by implementing sanctions in ways such as by not accepting bananas and apples… 🍌🍌🍌🍎🍎🍎
That’s interesting, guess i wasn’t tracking that closely enough. Thank you!
It was, indeed. The group has grown a lot since then but the original name has stuck.
Ah, wasn’t aware, thanks!
Yes and yes. What’s confusing you here?
