Palestine is expected to submit its application to join the BRICS, a group of emerging economies, after its upcoming summit in October in the city of Kazan, southwestern Russia.
Earlier, Putin invited Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan.
“This invitation means that despite all the crimes, killings and destruction in the Gaza Strip, our message is that Palestine wants to live and to develop,” Ambassador Nofal added.
BRICS includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. In January, it welcomed Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE as full members.
Yeah, my point is that this doesn’t.
It makes perfect sense under current circumstances where our side is supporting the aggressor. Why the fuck would they align themselves with the people providing the bombs landing on them?
While you may be right that joining BRICS might not be the greatest option I don’t think they have broad choice at this point. What would you do in their place?
