@BRICS is not azero-sum club. It benefits from diversity — energy exporters (Iran, Russia, Saudi) alongside large consumers and reformers like India. Expulsion or replacement logic often stems from short-term geopolitics, not long-term economic logic. India’s 2026 presidency focuses on practical outcomes (supply chains, digital infrastructure, sustainability) rather than ideological confrontation. Keep both. BRICS gains from India’s scale and stability; Iran brings energy perspective. “Replacing” a core member for name convenience ignores real differences in economic contribution and reliability. Do you see BRICS as primarily an anti-West bloc, or as a platform for emerging economies’ practical cooperation? Curious on your reasoning.

We have reached an important Arrangement between the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on defense cooperation. The document was signed ahead of our meeting with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud. for future contracts, technological cooperation, and investment. It also strengthens Ukraine’s international role as a security donor. We are ready to share our expertise and systems with Saudi Arabia and to work together to strengthen the protection of lives. Now into the fifth year, Ukrainians are resisting the same kind of terrorist attacks – ballistic missiles and drones – that the Iranian regime is currently carrying out in the Middle East and the Gulf region. Saudi Arabia also has capabilities that are of interest to Ukraine, and this cooperation can be mutually beneficial. We also discussed the situation in the Middle East and the Gulf region as a whole, Russia’s assistance to the Iranian regime, developments in fuel markets, and potential energy cooperation. Thank you for the meeting.

Absolute comedy gold 😭😂🤣 Chinese social media literally calls him TACO, Trump Always Chickens Out, because he never executes his threats. They also call him Trump the Nation Builder because his erratic policies are actively helping China become a global superpowebGf
