According to an interview with TV BRICS, African Ambassador Anil Sooklal has revealed that countries from Africa, Latin America and Asia have expressed their interest in joining the global economic alliance known as BRICS.
In fact, at least 13 countries from these regions have applied or formally approached the BRICS leaders to become members of the association. This is a positive development for the bloc as it demonstrates the confidence of the global south in the leadership of the association.
Sooklal further shared that BRICS, which is reportedly considering the launch of a global currency backed by gold, is now encouraging its members to shift away from the US dollar and settle transactions in their own national currencies. This shift is seen as a move towards creating a stable global financial arena, which is critical for the creation of a global political architecture that is equitable and just, and provides a safe environment for all.
BRICS is based on three pillars – political security, economic and financial development, and social interaction among member countries. All three pillars are critical to achieving a stable global political architecture. In addition to economic and financial development, leaders of the alliance plan to discuss sustainable development and green energy initiatives in their yearly summit, which will be held in August.
