Palestine is expected to submit its application to join the BRICS, a group of emerging economies, after its upcoming summit in October in the city of Kazan, southwestern Russia.
Earlier, Putin invited Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to attend the BRICS summit in Kazan.
“This invitation means that despite all the crimes, killings and destruction in the Gaza Strip, our message is that Palestine wants to live and to develop,” Ambassador Nofal added.
BRICS includes Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. In January, it welcomed Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE as full members.

Seems like Palestine is being pushed into that sphere of influence by lack of support from western countries.
And how is joining the loser club going to help them? Do they really think Russia or China give a flying fuck about the Palestinian people? All they’ll do is use them as props to criticise the West. Actually helping them would be counterproductive to their intentions
This is no kindergarden, there are no winner and loser clubs, only national interests and geopolitics. Membership is voluntary, so Palestine can chose whatever best serves their country.
Yeah, my point is that this doesn’t.
How doesn’t, the west has turned its back on the genocide they are facing so it only makes sense that they would seek to align themselves with players outside that group.
China and Russia are as self serving as the US, no less or no more. Palestine could benefit from this relationship more than it benefits from being ignored by the west.
China and Russia are both committing genocide right now.
And how that’s affect Palestine?
Sure, but they aren’t doing it in Palestine, which is what the Palestinians are currently concerned about.
Ok?
So are the USA, or at the very least being complicit and enabling. Furthermore, of the Palestinians themselves!
Israel is committing a genocide. The world is letting it happen. The US is supplying them with weapons and has a ten year weapons contract with them that was signed in 2016.
Fixed it for ya.
So but China is literally rounding up Uighurs into camps though, you have to understand that it’s not the same thing
It makes perfect sense under current circumstances where our side is supporting the aggressor. Why the fuck would they align themselves with the people providing the bombs landing on them?
While you may be right that joining BRICS might not be the greatest option I don’t think they have broad choice at this point. What would you do in their place?
Has the West has offered Palestine an alternative? Any alternative? Anything? The only thing we have offered them is perpetual subjugation and genocide. So what the fuck do you expect them to do?
What do they have to lose? The west still giving unconditional support to the terrorist state of israel
Hopefully this move will incentivise the west to offer up more cash and support for them.

The leaders of the five countries it’s named for (or representatives, at least, since Lavrov is there and not Putin) all posing in front of a big display prominently titled “BRICS Summit” suggests to me that the name is official enough
Modi hiding a boner and the other 4 fellas not sure what to do with their arms
Another one for the Axis of Evil
Sure, isolate them from the international community, then shit on them for grabbing whatever life-raft is left. What the fuck dude? They have been killed for decades all because zionist fucks wanted living room that wasn’t theirs.
A wrong action for the right reasons is still a wrong action
Criticism of survival from comfort is folly.
Does it feel good to pontificate on the morals of people that are desperate for survival while undergoing genocide? Like does it make you feel like an enlightened moral arbiter?
Don’t understand how joining an international group of countries is wrong.
If you mean to say that since Russia and China is part of the group making it the wrong group to be a part of. Then you must think even United nations is wrong.
Any grup with Russia is the evil group. United Nations is just a forum.
So is BRICS, so is OPEC.
INDIA is also in Quad, so even that is evil by ur definition.
South Africa and Brazil were some of the first countries to denounce the genocide campaign. The US and most of the EU continue to support it.
Tell me more about how they’re wrong and evil for not wanting to die.
Demonise those facing genocide and decimation.
Well yeah, what Israel is doing is straight out of the “how to breed terrorist” instruction manual so this is the inevitable result.
But Israel is the evil one?
