This should answer those who were wondering
what is happening with BRICS. In their latest summit that was held in Brazil this week the leaders of BRICS nations welcomed a new full member, Indonesia and also welcomed 10 new countries that joined BRICS as partners: Belarus, Bolivia, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, Malaysia, Thailand, Cuba, Vietnam, Uganda, and Uzbekistan.
Apparently BRICS now represents roughly half the population and GDP of the entire world

All dictatorships are welcome to the brics.
I am ashamed that my country is part of that group of countries which has no respect for human rights and individuals.
Milei rejected Brics, and now Argentina is looking for more democratic partners. I hope we can elect a new president next year and join his team.
