BRICS is coming down the pike Kollibri. If you haven't already, take a listen to anything Prof Jeffrey Sachs (deeply experienced, with a solid moral compass, and very smart) says about BRICS and Putin's handling of the recent BRICS meetings in Russia. I found it most impressive. A refreshing alternative view and practice of inter-nation collaboration. Strikingly candid and on the money about the USA's basic attitude toward other nations. At this very early stage - sets the

USA's superior attitude (condescending) in bas relief.
