Russian President Vladimir Putin sent a clear message ahead of the 2024 BRICS Summit, declaring the bloc’s purpose is collaboration—not confrontation. “BRICS has never targeted any other parties,” he emphasized during a media roundtable in Moscow, attended by outlets like China Media Group.
🔥 With the summit set to kick off October 22-24 in Kazan, Putin spotlighted BRICS’ growing clout. The group now has 10 member nations, with 30 others reportedly eyeing partnerships. “Our foundation is shared values and mutual benefit,” he said, framing BRICS as a counterbalance to unilateral global systems.
💡 In a fiery analogy, Putin criticized U.S. efforts to “curb China’s development,” comparing them to “keeping the sun from rising.” He also addressed questions on the Ukraine crisis and called for a “more equitable financial system.”
🌱 As BRICS expands, its role as a hub for emerging economies could reshape everything from trade to tech. Stay tuned for summit updates!
