BRICS to outpace G7 global growth in 2023

The BRICS group, comprised of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, will account for 32.1% of global growth this year, compared to the G7's 29.9%, Bloomberg reported, citing IMF data.

Moreover, the BRICS countries will significantly increase their share of the global economy to almost 35% by 2028, while the G7's contribution to the world economy is expected to decrease to 27.8%.

China and India will be the top contributors to global growth over the next five years, with China's share of global GDP expansion set to be double that of the US.

This data highlights the shifting balance of power in the global economy, with the BRICS group increasingly becoming a dominant force in driving global economic growth.

In turn, the G7 nations, including the US, the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan, will no longer be considered the most advanced global economic bloc.

A lot of people have joined the telegram channel over the past few days, and I assume that is due to some clips being shared on other channels. People will have a variety of beliefs that may make some of my content appealing to them; they may be on the Right, on the Left, they may be conspiracy theorist types, or they may be independent heterodox thinkers. We will find points of agreement and points to disagreement, no doubt. For myself, I just want to clarify something I have said a number of times in my content: I do not believe in any explanation of the global power structure that assigns dominant control to any secret society, ethnic or religious group, family, or international organisation. The owners and controllers of global financialised capital (OCGFC) dominate world affairs, and they are a diverse class of people who have both shared and competing interests amongst themselves; they do not all have the same world view, they do not all have the same philosophy, they do not all have the same plans. There is a general instinct for power consolidation and expansion which will be pursued in a variety of ways, and these strategies will inevitably adapt according to circumstances. It is a complex, shifting, and dynamic power struggle that is never-ending. As much as possible, we have to be objective, dispassionate, and analytical in our approach to identifying real power players, their interests, and how these interests are pursued; just for our own understanding of the world, and in order to be effective in developing our own strategies for improvement.

Russia and Bolivia dump dollar, euro to settle in local currencies

Russia and Bolivia agreed on a new trade transaction system to drop the US dollar and euro and carry out international commercial transactions using the Russian ruble and the Bolivian bolivianos instead.

The agreement was reached by Bolivian Foreign Minister Rogelio Mayta and his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov as part of his Latin American tour.

"Financial operations can now be carried out using national currencies. Direct correspondent accounts in rubles and bolivianos were opened between Gazprombank and Union, the largest Bolivian state-owned bank," Russian Ambassador to Bolivia Mikhail Ledenev said.

This will facilitate the work of Russian firms in the Andean market, which includes Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, he added.

Russia's 2023 Foreign Policy Concept, in effect earlier this month, makes specific reference to Latin America as a region of focus.
