the report said that when asked "why more and more countries are seeking to join the brics cooperation mechanism", zakharova said that the world is tired of the united states' "provocative" actions.
“the world wants to establish another form of relationship based on the principles of international law. but if washington is going to destroy everything like a hollywood madman with a lawn mower or a saw or an axe, the world will have to find a new form of relationship, a cooperative mechanism like brics instead of nato,” she said.
according to a report by ria novosti on the 4th of this month, zakharova told reporters that the number of countries applying to join the brics cooperation mechanism is "huge" and "dozens".
according to previous reports by tass and other media, russia will serve as the rotating chair of the brics from january 1, 2024. the brics membership of saudi arabia, egypt, the united arab emirates, iran, and ethiopia will also take effect from january 1. russian president vladimir putin once said that during russia's term as the rotating chair, it will do its utmost to make the "global majority" represented by the brics countries feel their respective development prospects, and at the same time make the new members "harmoniously integrate into the work rhythm of the organization."
