The 15th BRICS Summit in Johannesburg is buzzing with energy as leaders debate expansion plans and the potential shift away from the US dollar in global trade. While Western media labels the group a 'motley crew,' CGTN's Liu Xin is clapping back at critics, calling their doom-and-gloom narratives 'outdated.'
Could BRICS evolve into a counterweight to Western economic dominance? With talks of adding new members—and China's growing influence—this summit might just rewrite the rules of global finance. But is the group truly united? From tech collaborations to climate goals, BRICS nations are finding common ground despite differences.
'The West keeps asking, 'What's the point?'' says Liu. 'Maybe they’re just not ready for a multipolar world.' Stay tuned—this isn’t your grandpa’s geopolitics.
