Putin seeks to rival West with high-profile BRICS summit • FRANCE 24 English

Two dozen world leaders gathered in Russia on Tuesday for the opening of a three-day summit of the BRICS group, an alliance of emerging economies that the Kremlin hopes will challenge Western "hegemony". With the summit, the biggest such meeting in Russia since it ordered troops into Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin is seeking to show Western attempts to isolate Moscow over the two-and-a-half-year offensive have failed. FRANCE 24's International Affairs Editor Philip Turle tells us more.

Russian oil & India is just a small part of our oil Imports, India is not supporting Russia for oil, there are things called Friendship, trust, loyalty, Mutual Respect which westerners can’t understand

Once a western journalist asked: why BRICS?
S.Jaisankar: West have a special club G7, where they don't allow us, so we made our won club.

[PladimiirVutin]

Putin is so isolated that nearly 50 percent of whole world's population's leaders are visiting him as friends and partners 😂

Not only Russia seeks but also whole middle east and Africa and Asia seek. People seek equal right financially and peacefully.

[lordfedjoe]

Omg! Dear Western pundits, everything is not about the West. Other people actually want to do their own things without you not trying to make it about you

[MLTUNESMRD]

What does NATO have to do with BRICS, TURKEY have the right to join BRICS if it chooses to?

You must relax, BRICS has no BRICS army yet, the day they decide to have an army NATO will be a joke

[amanjaiswal]

If you visit Germany then you will see everywhere foods, watches, electronic items and many more things are made in china. I was totally shocked to see how much European countries depends upon chinese products🇨🇳.

[nottinghambouy]

Wish BRICS all the best. I hope they don't end up like what the West and global North have become.

[robvannNS]

BRICS plus represents a win win. That's why so many countries who have been under the thumb of the west are clambering to join BRICS.

[itlearner]

I heard that the West was invited to collaborate on global development through a common prosperity initiative, but instead, they chose a confrontational approach.
