brics1-1-1-1
Ankara, Sep 2 (Prensa Latina) The government of Türkiye presented an official request to join the Brics group, a report by the Sputnik agency citing sources familiar with the matter.

The group, initially composed of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, was extended this year with the entry of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Ethiopia and Iran.

Türkiye officially asked to join the Brics group of developing countries, as it seeks to strengthen its global influence and establish new ties beyond its traditional Western allies, the information disseminated by Sputnik notes.

Russia assumed last January 1 the rotating presidency in the group for 2024, a year that began with the admission of new members.

This alliance includes almost half of the world’s population, 40% of global oil production and around 25% of goods exports.
