BRICS is a nothing burger. Way too much of polar opposites with inferiority complexes between them to accomplish anything. India will never allow China to lead anything it is apart of. Brazil is just the supermarket that China wants to shop at. South Africa is laughable as an economically important nation in anyway. So it comes down to Chinas economic heft and Russias continued clinging to thinking it’s a global superpower. Luckily Russia has an energy slush fund to pull from. But all of these competing thoughts are not compatible. It’s why nothing has come from all their meetings. Optics are more important than substance for Russian and Chinese leadership.
They may not have a lot in common, but the one they do have in common is wanting to get out from under the thumb of the US dollar. Russia is a global superpower with its energy reserves and more importantly look at its debt to GDP. Debt is always the downfall of any nation. Yes China's debt is massive, but their belt and road initiative and what they are laying the groundwork for to be in partnership with over 100 countries is going to leave us sucking hind tit. There has been a lot that has come from their meetings, unless you are listening to the bobbleheads on the tv. If you want to argue they are in the beginning stages of a one world government, then maybe, maybe not, but they are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. Add in the fact that we have a vice president who doesn't want us to have the reserve currency of the world, then a lot of the pieces of the puzzle are in place. It just depends if you can see how they go together.
