he BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) will be at the heart of a new world order, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said on Wednesday (March 30).
“In all respects … these countries will become the basis of a new world order,” the deputy foreign minister told RT when asked whether the BRICS countries would take a more important role in the world.
Russia is working to establish contacts with any country that is interested in cooperation, he said.
“There is no news here about our stable and long-standing policy of establishing a comprehensive static partnership with China, this is just another step,” he said, commenting on the recent meeting of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi.
