What difference has BRICS made on the world stage? | Inside Story
The 17th BRICS summit takes place in Brazil again, aiming to balance Western economic power and political dominance.But as the meetings take place, eyes are on the US and President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs, perhaps showing America still holds the cards.
While the host nation, Brazil, condemns Israel's aggression and NATO’s increased defence spending, other countries are not so outspoken.
And two important faces are not attending - Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
So, does BRICS still have a cohesive purpose?
Has the grouping made tangible achievements over the years since it launched in 2009?
And what can it realistically hope to do, in today’s world?
Presenter: James Bays
Guests:
Gustavo Ribeiro, Founder and Editor-in-chief of The Brazilian Report.
Sergey Markov, Director at Institute of Political Studies in Moscow and Former Public Spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Jayant Menon, Former Lead Economist at Asian Development Bank and Visiting Senior Fellow at ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute in Singapore.
