He, however, ruled out any immediate expansion of the group. Argentina had earlier bid to join the club. “It is quite possible for BRICS to enter into strategic partnership with Argentina, as with other big developing countries, in both politics and the economy,” said Putin on Thursday. Ahead of the 6th BRICS Summit, Putin lauded the growing “political influence” of Brazil in the international community. Moscow, Putin said, supports Brazil “as a deserving and strong candidate for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council”. “I am sure that this powerful and fast-developing country is destined to play an important role in the emerging polycentric world order,” he added. Latin American nations, including Brazil, were angered by revelations in Brazil’s O Globo newspaper earlier that the US National Security Agency snooped on oil and energy firms in Brazil and intercepted calls and emails of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff. Rousseff had subsequently canceled a state visit to the US. Brazil then co-drafted the “right to privacy” resolution with Germany, which has been passed by the UN rights committee. Putin on Thursday said the current cyber-espionage narrative “not only amounts to overt hypocrisy in relationships between allies and partners, but also a direct violation of the state’s sovereignty, an infringement on human rights and an invasion of privacy”. After state visits to Cuba and Argentina, Putin heads to Rio de Janeiro on July 13 to watch the World Cup final. The Russian President will hold talks with his BRICS counterparts in Fortaleza on July 15 and in Brasilia on July 16. The BRICS development bank will be announced at the Summit in Brazil as an alternative to the Western-dominated World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The idea was proposed by India at a 2012 meeting of the organization’s finance ministers in Mexico. TBP http://thebricspost.com/brics-clout-drawing-membership-bids-putin/#.U_CHEM61ExW |

The Cape of Good
Hope -
American Hegemony is Over
By Israel Shamir
October 27, 2013 "Information Clearing House - First, the good news. American hegemony is over. The bully has been subdued. We cleared the Cape of Good Hope, symbolically speaking, in September 2013. With the Syrian crisis, the world has passed a key forking of modern history. It was touch and go, just as risky as the Cuban missile crisis of 1962. The chances for total war were high, as the steely wills of America and Eurasia had crossed in the Eastern Mediterranean. It will take some time until the realisation of what we’ve gone through seeps in: it is normal for events of such magnitude. The turmoil in the US, from the mad car chase in the DC to the shutdown of federal government and possible debt default, are the direct consequences of this event.

Bullies, Americans-Israelis&IsraeliFirsters-Brits-Et-Al and commit Apartheid Genocide forever and ever! Proving, the criminally insane of our species can't be in charge of World Earth anymore. Thank BRICS for the paradigm shift, for now.
