Around 20,000 delegates from over 30 countries are expected to attend the three-day international forum in Kazan. The 16th BRICS summit is taking place in Kazan, where dozens of foreign leaders have gathered in Russia’s fifth-largest city for three days of intense diplomatic discussions and high-level bilateral talks as part of the international forum which offers a new vision of multilateralism........ So much about Western sanctions isolating Russia from the rest of the world, hey? According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, the number of countries engaging with BRICS has been steadily growing, with approximately 34 nations expressing interest in cooperation as of September.

“Our group is expanding. The number of friends and like-minded individuals within the BRICS association has increased, and interest in our activities is very high,” Putin said last week, stressing that the group is not an “anti-Western” organization but “simply non-Western.” Good news. The world needs BRICS and BRICS needs RUSSIA. Meanwhile, back in the US, Donald Trump has donned an apron and is dishing up fries at McDonald's.

This very important BRICS summit in the beautiful city of Kazan - Russia with support from the majority of the world countries is a pivotal event that will change the world towards a better future. Even if Trump has threatened that anyone joining BRICS will have huge tariffs. At the end of the day, it will be the US that will end up isolating itself with it's own greed and ignorance.
