Putin seeks unity at BRICS summit to challenge Western hegemony

ai generated text

The BRICS group, which includes Russia, China, India, Brazil, and South Africa, is expanding rapidly, with 30 countries having applied for membership. The group's appeal has been unprecedented since its expansion at the Johannesburg summit in August 2023. The BRICS summit is seen as a key opportunity for Russia to challenge Western "hegemony" and demonstrate that Western attempts to isolate Moscow have failed. Putin will be joined by key partners such as Xi Jinping, Narendra Modi, and Recep Tayyip Erdogan, all of whom are seen as important allies for Russia.

Luis Inácio Lula Da Silva
Workers Party
1. Avoiding escalation and initiating peace negotiations is also crucial in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
2. As we face two wars that have the potential to become global, it is essential to restore our ability to work together toward common goals.
Narendra Modi
Indian Government
1. We have been in constant touch over the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
2. We believe that disputes should only be resolved peacefully. We totally support efforts to quickly restore peace and stability.
Yuri Ushakov
1. What BRICS is doing is gradually -- brick by brick -- building a bridge to a more democratic and just world order.
Dmitry Peskov
Kremlin
1. It is very difficult to isolate any country in the modern world.
Vladimir Putin
Kremlin
1. The doors are open, we're not excluding anyone.
2. BRICS was never meant to be against anyone. The Indian Prime Minister (Narendra Modi) said that BRICS is not an anti-western group, it is a non-western group.
3. While talking with PM Modi, each time he raises this matter and expresses his considerations. We are thankful to him for that.
4. This is an association of states that work together based on common values, a common vision of development and, most importantly, the principle of taking into account each other's interests.
5. The process of forming a multipolar world order is underway, a dynamic and irreversible process.
6. Significant crisis potential also remains. And it is not only about the ever-increasing geopolitical tensions, but also ... the practice of unilateral sanctions, protectionism and unfair competition is expanding.
Ukraine Foreign Ministry
1. The UN secretary-general declined Ukraine's invitation to the first Global Peace Summit in Switzerland.
2. He did, however, accept the invitation to Kazan from war criminal Putin.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy
Ukraine Government
1. We don't do nuclear weapons. Please, don't move these messages.
Jim O'Neill
Goldman Sachs
1. The idea that they're all going to fundamentally agree on something of great substance is bonkers really.
2. I am not sure what fruitful purpose it serves other than being a club that the US is not a part of.
3. In some ways it's a good job for the West that China and India can never agree about anything. Because if those two were really serious, Brics would have enormous influence.
4. Putin will be able to claim that despite the West's best efforts to isolate Russia after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, his country not only is far from being an international pariah, but also is now a pivotal member of a dynamic group that will shape the future of the international order.
