Celso Amorim, lead foreign affairs adviser to leftwing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, told the Financial Times those attacks “are reinforcing our relations with the Brics, because we want to have diversified relations and not depend on any one country”.
I believe in the BRICS proposal. For any of you who don't, if you lived in a third world country you would understand what the missed potential is all about. Latin America is somewhat integrated, but people from Brazil could do scientific exchange with Uzbekistan, or an Algerian could be a professor in Senegal. The human potential is so great, because there are a lot of people who are left out from the current state of things.
Everyone wants to go study or be a professional in Europe, but what about all the other countries? Doing the hard thing (working together to reach new heights) is difficult, but it is the only way forward. And that's what the BRICS propose.
