For more than a decade, the BRICS group has comprised five countries, dominated by China. Especially since member Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the group has positioned itself as a counterweight to Western democracies that dominate the world economy. Now, its membership has doubled - welcoming five new members including oil-rich countries in the Middle East.

I dont really understand your comnent but this is not against "western democracies", who says you are better democracies? The western democracies caused and started most of the wars in the world. This is just a balance to the G7 and IMF to help the developing countries. Europe is done btw, mostly a US protetorad, just look the war that was started there, basically was just watching it and losing even more indendepence and autonomy. BRICS may have mixed countries, very diferrent ideological views but calling western democracies is a lie, is just the old central imperialist us aligned capitalist countries, including Israel that is also in a coward warfare against miserable Palestinians in the middle east.

Why those channels misrepresent the BRICS, is it intentional?, it is not about a common currency, it is not about democracies. It is more about trading in the national currencies, buy irani oil with brazilian reais, exchange food with infraestructure from china. The economies will benefit with more dynamism and flexibility and removes power from USA and europe to influence the world with sanctions that benefits no one. This whole deal will benefit a huge percentage of the population. USA and EU wont be capable to use the sanctions regime to destroy economies and it will allow the rest of the world to prosper.

Voting cannot solve almost any problem. Because the world has developed to the extent it is today, many things cannot be solved by expressing emotions. From this perspective, EU countries are not even as good as Russia, Iran and Turkey. In the past 20 years, Russia has won three wars (the Second Chechen War, the Georgian War and the Syrian War). Russia has established a unique model of defending overseas interests, allowing Russia to become a food source. Turkey, the exporting country, has established a drone industry and has established a certain influence in the Middle East. Iran’s Arc of Resistance Alliance has become the most powerful country in the Middle East and is the world leader in military strategy and drone technology. Looking at the EU, you can hardly say that the EU is here. What has been accomplished in the past 20 years? The European debt crisis, deindustrialization, ideological demonization, and the failure of immigration issues have made it almost impossible for Europe to solve problems within the existing EU framework. In this case, European countries want to save themselves. We can only bypass the EU and retain the power of independent decision-making on the premise of retaining the unified market. What European countries need is not vote politics but realism, pragmatic diplomacy and non-argument.
@tianlezheng6829
@tianlezheng6829 7 ай бұрын
It is better to call it vote policy or vote owner. This is how I understand it: Demo is a variant of dome, which is "dome". Look at the buildings of European and American government agencies. Do many of them have a large dome? Under this dome, many people are discussing political affairs. So I think the accurate meaning of democracy is closer to a kind of local or deliberative politics after the decentralization of many political institutions. But the people participating in the negotiations are still powerful people rather than ordinary people. Hong Kong drug addicts can just be called rioters. It’s not like the West doesn’t have appropriate vocabulary. Just translate the leader of the gangsters into terrorist, and the trumpeters into separatists.

But once the country stops being subject to the US, then immediately the country is no longer a democracy and must be "helped" to become a democracy.

Democracy and economic power is not exclusive to the west (although politicians and mainstream media want you to think so). In fact some would argue these two aspects in some western countries have declined while those in the east and the rest of the world have risen. This is manifested in 40 countries wanting to join BRICS instead of just following rules set by the west, these countries want alternatives for themselves. Which is not a bad thing for the rest of the world, when they see that the current system only primarily benefitted the west.

​@@joaorosti Oh I'm not saying the US / EU are angels. There are no angels in global politics, only various levels of interest, ability and tactics. But these forces aren't practicing Colonialism. They've long-ago moved to soft-power methods (financial bonds, supporting specific local factions, realignment campaigns, etc) over hard-power Colonialism methods (military takeover of countries and taking direct leadership over foreign nations). Both Puerto Rico and Hawaii Were colonized way-back-when during the Colonialism eras of these countries. These days, technically, since they're not states, they Could choose to leave the US... but they've been a part of the US for so long that a lot of folk living there aren't native to there and a lot of those native to there live in other states of the US, and they have really strong (almost impossible to break) economic ties that would ravage those territories if there was a separation, and so on.. So realistically they're as likely to break from the US as Whales is from Great Britain. Technically possible but unlikely and very few people seriously want to. Not too familiar with the France situation so I'll let those who know more about that speak to that. From what I recall of 'Francafrique', while France does retain a strong presence in those regions, there is no direct legal or military control ("colonies") of any of that region anymore. So yea, there was a period of 'Colonialism' (hard power) for these nations - as there was for Russia (USSR), China (Tibet), Turkey (the Ottoman Empire), Mongolia (the Mongolian Empire), the Aztecs colonized (fairly brutally) a lot of their neighbors, etc. History is messy. Right now the US/EU are no longer 'colonizers'. Just like China/Russia are trying to use BRICs and soft-power to control Africa (not colonizers) but is threatening hard-power military-takeover of Taiwan / Ukraine (colonizers). And as someone born in a country that's been Colonized a whole lot over its history, whose ancestors suffered quite a bit under various military occupations? A regular citizen cares a LOT about the distinction between being Colonized and having soft-power used to 'align government interests'.

The West has turned democracy religion into their secular pseudo-religion ever since it gave up on Christianity. In reality, democracy isn't necessarily a bad or good thing.

Every country has to find its own model that fits its culture, demographics, values, history etc. China and India just shows there are different paths to the same end.

@@puppetmaster579 The definition of 'success' is a problem for both the US and China. The US is a democracy.. but what it is primarily is a 'capitalistic oligarchy'. It measures 'success' by GDP, which is why it is currently 'successful' but a lot of folk are struggling to survive. In this instance the democracy part is fine (that's actually good for general happiness) but the economic model hurts. Its also been rising Faster now then it had been by using cheap labor in countries with horrible human-rights histories (eg. China). So while technically it is 'succeeding' in practice it is hurting both its own citizens (workers) and the exploited countries (tolerating / rewarding their inhuman practices) China on the other hand defines 'success' by 'how much control it has over its population' (as shown by all the counter-protest crackdowns, excessive surveillance state, etc) - its dictatorship principles - and by that measure its 'succeeding'... but individual human rights (especially for Tibetans, Uyghurs, those in Hong Kong, basically any group that's not Very Chinese... and for any Chinese that doesn't fall in line) suck / decrease happiness. Its also 'rising' largely by directly copying innovations and education in the west (without R&D costs, without risks) and then calling those outcomes 'China's success'. By that measure I could break into my neighbor's house, steal his TV, and then brag about what a great TV I have.. thought it was actually my neighbor's actions that generated that TV and I just stole it. Which country is 'succeeding' or 'rising' depends on what kind of measuring tape that country uses. And sadly none of them are actually 'succeeding' in terms of 'doing right by their citizens'. Maybe there's some model in between somewhere.. *sigh*

Hey... I don't like Lula, I think there is a lot of unfortunate thinking from our politicians and I also really DON'T think my country is going to counter any democracy. To say that is kinda offensive I think. I see DW as a very reliable source of info and expect more than this lack of nuance. I don't know if it's a clickbait thing or else... just... please... be reasonable.

mmm.. I think that while we can easily call BRICs a league of dictatorship-nations, like China and Russia yea, India gives pause. But that's 'cause India is being super-confusing as to where it wants to be, wanting to be both in G7-nations and in BRICS and.. basically in everything. If India was solidly in BRICs yea, they'd the 'token democracy' that I'm sure BRICs would carry on a banner saying 'no, we're not dictorships, we have a democratic friend!' Brazil is in a different weird place because it thought it was joining a small and exclusive economic trade group, just to expand its own trade partners. Since BRICs became a 'let's stick it to the west!' group that tries to embrace as many dictatorships as it can (largely because China/Russia got tired of bullying people and being called bullies) Brazil's been trying to put on the breaks to the expansion (trying to keep it an economic partnership, not this political machine) but, unsurprisingly, it hasn't had much success. Unsurprisingly because it was clear from the get-go that China/Russia (and now mainly China) wanted to create a system it could be 'in charge of' like the US generally leads the rest of the economies (they got tired of being unable to out-compete the US so they decided to create their own little pond where they'd be the big scary fish). So the writing was on the wall for Brazil that once this took off they'd need to hand China/Russia a stick of butter and brace themselves. The rest of the countries (like South Africa) don't play a significant enough economic, military, or other form of role. They're to BRICs politics what the Vatican and Cook Islands are to the rest of the global economy. They're there, they can say what they want, but they're not representative or what we think of when we say 'western economy' or 'G7 economy' or 'economy in the free world'.

All these absurd terms only originate among certain sections of the United states, that doesn't mean they are official everywhere in the world or everywhere in the US. All these claims arouse with the opinion that because of the fact that Indians (and South Asians) and East Asians have over representation in elite jobs and tech with being the richest ethnic groups in the United States, they are no longer to subject to issue of racism.

5 countries with rather different interests (China & India!?) could often not agree on much, what do you think it's gonna be like with 10? A few years ago Ethiopia & Egypt almost went to war over the Gerd Dam and Iran & Saudi aren't exactly cozy bedfellows, to say the least. We'll see, it's certainly a formidable range of countries and across 3 continents so it has breadth, and given it's economic footprint and vast population it has real heft, but if everyone's come together and their only binding agenda is as a counterbalance with the West then it might not have that much impact, cos the interests of so many of these countries are *so* different and varied, a glaring fact which the West will now exploit to the fullest, which, in some ways, is perhaps the new expanded BRICS' biggest handicap. We'll see if countries like Serbia and even Hungary join BRICS which is certainly not impossible, esp Serbia, or, conversely, if the EU may rush to try and fast track Serbia into the EU. I'm not convinced Hungary would leave the EU for BRICS since economically it gets a great deal from the EU that it's just not feasible to see it getting from BRICS (landlocked, totally dependent on importing energy). Either way, interesting times ahead.

If you can see what the future world situation is and why the United States is fighting Iraq, the essence is that Iraq wants to settle oil in euros and gives up settling oil in dollars. Therefore, the United States must remind the European Union of the fate of giving up the dollar to settle oil, and the fate of giving up the dollar. Hungary sees the future. The essence of BRICS countries is to raise their own currency influence. I still have a lot of predictions about the future. I'm too lazy to tell you if you are in the West. I can only wish you good luck. The West is finished.

Nowadays, many people talk about democracy, freedom, judicial independence and freedom of speech. Real people don't care. They love false concepts, not specific people. To put it bluntly, people just want good public security. As the economy develops and the country becomes stronger, liberals really want false spiritual satisfaction and street trouble. They understand nothing but feel good about themselves. They are separated from the masses, but they think they represent the people and move themselves Lots of talk but nothing real done That is, holding demonstrations is much easier than building roads and infrastructure to develop productivity, and it can also provide emotional value.

Selecting leaders through elections is not more democratic than selecting leaders through other methods. Ballot politics does not necessarily conform to public opinion, nor does it necessarily equal democracy. Democracy should be about political machines and public power serving the people and providing good public governance and social security. It’s not about inciting emotions that are divorced from facts and empty value output that’s divorced from reality. After all, we live in reality. A political system that can solve real problems is more democratic

@@tianlezheng6829 Your understanding is truly weird! 'Demo' in democracy refers to the people. In a democracy the people decides their common way. Some choose to create frames for their lives that make it relatively easy to achieve good life quality. Some choose something else, e.g. the UK did Brexit for the sake of their nationalism and became less rich. Those elected to be representatives were 'ordinary people' before they were elected and will be that again when they no longer are representatives. They will often have good positions as it often takes good personal ressources to succeed in being elected. That is how things work in Scandinavia and most of EU, in the US people believe too much in capitalism and the rich have partly taken over power. Rich people being in power is the most common in our World, sadly for the citizens. I hope you don't believe that the democracy movement in Hong Kong was lead by drug addicts! Danes with personal relations there have confirmed the movement was what it seemed to be. One Dane (Uffe Elbæk) cheated the Chinese authorities and got one of the imprisoned leaders out.
