Looks like the US is quickly becoming obsolete. With its bullying and warmongering - no wonder other countries decide to just walk away. We are a very bothersome neighbor.

About dang time! Kudos to BRICS! Americans are sick of our leaders, and they only seem to listen to their own ideology, delusions, and greed. We're fighting a war we can't win and sick to death of our lunatic neocon leaders. I wish the American people were listening. Unfortunately, the majority of them believe out leaders and care more about Meghan and Harry. Appreciate your voice.

This is a another great step toward a multipolar word order where everybody gets to benefit. Tragically the 13% of the world's population living in the West are hostage to Washington's intransigence and on our way to being an economic backwater where our institutions and standard of living will continue to decline.

Bravo Brazil! It's heartening to see the BRICS countries come on strong with their divorce from the IMF and the petrodollar. They are the future, and they will help us all reach that brighter future due to their foresight.
