Nigeria should join BRICS+

[-] 201dberg@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 1 year ago

" Nigeria had applied to join BRICS in 2023 but the application was rejected at the 15th summit in Johannesburg. Despite the rejection, Nigeria is looking at possible ways to join BRICS and be a part of the bloc. "

First two sentences in the article.
They are trying.

I think the next summit should add at least Bangladesh and Nigeria, and either of Malaysia or Indonesia.

They definitely will, brics has been taking a slow approach to expansion and its completely fine. Mutual benefitial arrangements require time. Btw did Saudi arabia join brics or theyre still thinking about it? Mainstream media has not cleared it up.

Reuters later put up an article saying that they were still thinking about it... 😩

Excellent, i needed a source from the region. Not even wikipedia has caught up with this, i feel like it is intended since it is a huge W for brics.
