Decadent, degenerate, dying Western nations are not welcome in the rising BRICS+ alliance.

Western countries don’t have a chance of joining BRICS as long as they pursue hostile policies against any of its members, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said on Friday.

Speaking at a press conference following the BRICS summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, Ryabkov recalled that one of the key conditions for admittance to the group is “non-application of illegal sanctions against any of the members of the association.”

Well, duh, naturally. Yet as things progress, Western nations will slowly break away and switch sides. Hungary will probably be the first. The last? Who knows? It could be that in a decade or two the only GAE-aligned countries might be the USSA, Canada, and the UK – each destined to collapse into chaos.

Somewhere recently I heard someone postulate that Southerners in the (neo)CSA could join BRICS+ as the USSA breaks down and apart. That would require a lot, including, at a minimum, proactive thinking on the part of nominal Southern leadership. Ergo, while it could happen, it is not even on the radar at the moment.

Time will tell.
