Geeee Seven

 


South Africa’s representative to BRICS Ambassador Anil Sooklal has hinted that the grouping is set to grow bigger this year with more than 30 countries having formally and informally applied to join the alliance.
The development will come as a blow to the United States of America and other Western nations, which will see their GDPs dwindle to that of the BRICS.  
BRICS is an acronym for the powerful grouping of the world’s leading emerging market economies, Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The BRICS mechanism aims to promote peace, security, development and cooperation.
Anything but... the US's sanctions that destroyed the economy of many countries.
Economic sanctions, often illegally imposed, have a lasting negative impact on the populations in targeted countries and almost never achieve their stated goals, claims a new study published by the Washington-based Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR).

Policy..

 

Today’s Russian media portrays the U.S. military as such in the cartoon. The thesis is relatively straightforward.

That is part of the events where the Military forces were used.

Shift..

 

 President Joe Biden’s decision to allow allies to train Ukrainian forces on how to operate F-16 fighter jets — and eventually to provide the aircraft themselves — seemed like an abrupt change in position but was in fact one that came after months of internal debate and quiet talks with allies....
