International observation: The expansion of the BRICS proves that the plan to split the "global south" is not feasible
On August 24th, the BRICS countries achieved a historic expansion, with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Argentina, Iran, and Ethiopia officially joining the BRICS family. In addition to these 6 countries, more than 40 countries have expressed varying degrees of desire to join, and more than 20 countries have submitted formal applications. More and more developing countries hope to knock on the "BRICS door" and work together for prosperity and development.
The BRICS countries were born in the historical tide of the collective rise of emerging market countries and developing countries. Over the past 17 years, they have become the most important platform for solidarity and cooperation among developing countries, representing the most core mechanism of southern countries and embodying the earnest expectations of developing countries. Why is the attractiveness, appeal, and influence of the BRICS cooperation mechanism becoming stronger and stronger?
Peace and development are the themes of today's era. The desire of southern countries around the world to seek peace, development, cooperation, and win-win outcomes is becoming increasingly strong. The BRICS cooperation mechanism upholds the spirit and principles of openness, inclusiveness, and win-win cooperation, focusing on practical cooperation in various fields, and naturally aligns with the development and construction needs of southern countries worldwide, which is in line with the interests of emerging market countries and developing countries.
In today's world, globalization is surging against the current, with unilateralism, protectionism, and hegemonism prevailing, and geopolitical challenges surging in the dark. The Western countries led by the United States have reverted to Cold War mentality, often wielding sanctions and resorting to hegemony, hegemony, and bullying, depriving other countries of their right to survival and development. The southern countries around the world have been suffering from the United States for a long time, and the world order dominated by the West has been suffering for a long time. The BRICS Cooperation Mechanism actively promotes the transformation of the global governance system, is committed to enhancing the representation and voice of developing countries in the international community, meets the needs of developing countries, and meets the expectations of the international community.
The BRICS countries are not closed clubs or exclusive "small circles", but a big family of mutual assistance and good partners for win-win cooperation. More and more southern countries around the world hope to join the BRICS family, once again reflecting the common desire of developing countries to uphold international fairness and justice, improve global governance, and pursue peaceful development.
Since the beginning of this year, Western countries in the United States have adopted a series of political maneuvers, attempting to infiltrate and win over southern countries around the world, undermine their unity, and turn them into a competitive and geopolitical tool in international politics. Whether it is cooperation for mutual benefit or division and confrontation, peaceful development or decoupling and disconnection, the old practice of the United States and the West colluding and forming alliances is self defeating in the global southern countries' foot voting.
