China Welcomes Six New Nations Into Its ‘New World Order’ Coalition

China has announced that six new countries have been added to its ‘New World Order’ coalition on Thursday.

Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS), a group of countries combatting traditional Western dominance over the planet, added Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt, Argentina and the UAE to its BRICS coalition.

Leaders of the original ‘New World Order’ coalition described the historical and geopolitical significance of the new member additions and suggested this is only the beginning.

“BRICS has embarked on a new chapter in its effort to build a world that is fair, a world that is just, a world that is also inclusive and prosperous,” South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said, according to Reuters. “We have consensus on the first phase of this expansion process and other phases will follow.”

Discernreport.com reports: Dozens of other countries including Bolivia, Cuba and Kazakhstan also want to join BRICS, according to Reuters.

“This membership expansion is historic,” Chinese President Xi Jinping, said, according to Reuters. “It shows the determination of BRICS countries for unity and cooperation with the broader developing countries.”

Russian President Vladmir Putin did not attend the summit because of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for his alleged crimes in Russia’s war with Ukraine, according to Reuters.

“BRICS is not competing with anyone,” Putin said in remotely recorded remarks, according to Reuters. “But it’s also obvious that this process of the emerging of a new world order still has fierce opponents.”

The BRICS coalition, which has expanded to encompass 11 nations, consists of a combined population of 3.7 billion people including three authoritarian states, two autocratic monarchies and a theocracy, according to The New York Times.

Representatives from several countries railed against the dollar, suggesting a desire to decrease dependence on the U.S. currency at the summit on Tuesday, according to reports.
