Global powerhouse? Wonder what the combined GDP of this ‘alliance’ is.

You don’t have to wonder, the information isn’t hard to find.

The five BRICS countries overtook the G7 in terms of unadjusted GDP earlier this year, contributing about 31% to the global total vs. 30% from the G7. BRICS are expected to reach 50% by the end of the decade. In terms of purchasing power parity they were already equal in 2021. The five BRICS countries also make up 40% of the global population.

Now add the GDP, populations, and growth prospects for the thirty or so applicant nations on top of that, as well as how much more robustly they can grow once they get out of the shadow of the US empire.

BRICS is a big deal, especially now that the US and it’s vassals are otherwise occupied, allowing the age of multipolarity and dedollarization to come even more quickly than anticipated.
