OF THE
TIMES
We must provide a platform for the countries interested in rapprochement with the BRICS, where they will be able to work practically without feeling left behind and joining this cooperation rhythm. And as to how the further expansion will be decided upon - this should be postponed at least until the leaders convene in Kazan to decide.The key decision on BRICS+ expansion will only come out of the Kazan summit next October. Ryabkov stresses that the order of the day is first "to integrate those who have just joined." This means that "as a 'ten,' we work at least as efficiently, or, rather, more efficiently than we did within the initial 'five.'"
Last year, it took an entire year to develop the admission, expansion criteria at the level of top officials. Many reasonable things were developed. And many of the things that were formulated back then got reflected in the list of countries that joined. But it would probably be improper to formalize the requirements. At the end of the day, an admission to the association is a subject of political decision.
"This war is a war on children. It is a war on their childhood and their future," Lazzarini said, calling for an immediate ceasefire "for the sake of children in Gaza."
"For centuries, they got used to stuffing their stomachs with human flesh and their pockets with money. But they must realize that this 'ball of vampires' is coming to an end."
Comment: It looks seriously as if quite a number of Western leaders are collectively suffering from Dunning-Kruger syndrome. It is also likely that those behind the scenes, who are pulling the strings of the Western leaders, are getting desperate as things are not going according to their plans.
For those in the West who calls for Ukraine to win and for Russia to be defeated, they would do well to remember the universal law of Hubris and Nemesis. This idea of Hubris and Nemesis is also reflected in the Chinese concept of the Mandate of Heaven, with the idea that if rulers failed to look after their people, then Heaven would withdraw the divine mandate to rule. Pierre Lescaudron wrote about this in his book: Earth Changes and the Human-Cosmic Connection
