BRICS has expanded to 20 countries – 10 members and 10 partners – after adding Vietnam. BRICS+ now makes up 44% of world GDP (PPP) and 56% of the global population. The US failed to divide China and Vietnam in its Second Cold War.

@freeagent BRICS is a trade organization, it's not an ideological bloc like NATO. This is a strength and not a weakness. Countries within BRICS can have disagreements on policy, but do trade together regardless. China happens to be one of India's biggest trade partners.

This is what actual civilization looks like as opposed to the west where everyone has to be subordinated to daddy.
