In a bold move to enhance its global standing, Venezuela has proposed leveraging its vast oil reserves to gain membership in the BRICS group, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
This push for inclusion comes amid significant political unrest and economic challenges within the country.
President Nicolás Maduro publicly affirmed Venezuela’s ambition to join BRICS during a recent broadcast of his radio show, “Con Maduro de Repente.”
Maduro described the move as a pivotal step towards connecting Venezuela with a new world order, emphasizing the country’s resilience despite facing sanctions and international aggression.
