"It is a foundational principle of BRICS+ that nations are sovereign and equal. None of the nations in BRICS+ need subscribe to any diminution of sovereignty by joining BRICS+ because it has no membership rules, no powers to intervene or punish its members.

This is a REVOLUTIONARY PRINCIPLE! Only nations can decide priorities and policy, take actions."

BRICS+ creates a distributed, sovereign network.

BRICS+ will tend to better policies and governance by sharing, modelling and rewarding beneficial, collaborative behaviour, not by destroying each other.

Be it as it may, the American century is over and god thank, it can't be worse than that.
