BRICS was formed in 2009 when Barack Obama was President. It was formed as a coalition to compete with US "hegemony."
You need to do some basic research before posting. Or blame Obama - up to you.
What does Brics mean and who are the new members?
In 2006, Brazil, Russia, India and China created the "Bric" group. South Africa joined in 2010, making it "Brics".
The group was designed to bring together the world's most important developing countries, to challenge the political and economic power of the wealthier nations of North America and Western Europe.
Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were invited to become members with effect from 1 January 2024.
