On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Dr. Victoria Panova, Head of Russia’s BRICS Expert Council who participated at the World Governments Summit in Dubai, UAE. She discusses the shadow of a US war on Iran hanging over the region, the status of Saudi Arabia’s invitation to join BRICS and Javier Milei’s rejection of BRICS membership for Argentina, the launch of the BRICS New Development Bank as an alternative to the Washington-dominated World Bank and IMF, Brazil’s Lula Da Silva vetoing BRICS membership for Venezuela, the subsequent kidnapping of President Nicolas Maduro and Cilia Flores by Donald Trump and the silence of BRICS and the international community. In the second half, she discusses why Donald Trump believes BRICS is an anti-US bloc, the building of an independent payment system and the use of non-dollar currencies, Trump’s tariff war against BRICS nations, Donald Trump being the ‘best thing’ to happen to BRICS, and much more.
