BRICS Pay will be a digital platform that would allow consumers and businesses in partner countries to make payments and transfer funds across borders with ease – precisely what we do now with SWIFT, except that they would not do so under Western domination. More than 50 countries have already expressed interest in joining this initiative ahead of the 2024 BRICS summit.

There is a virtually unanimous perception of a worsening of the major international dilemmas, whether we are referring to issues of peace or development, manifesting itself in open discontent with the different yardsticks applied to certain conflicts and the persistence in preserving an exclusive hegemony that does not take into sufficient consideration the changes that have occurred in recent decades in the international economy and society.

In recent years, Morocco has succeeded in getting several Western powers to change their position on the Western Sahara conflict to align themselves with Rabat's theses, albeit to varying degrees. The first was the United States under Donald Trump, and the last was France under Macron, both of which have gone furthest in recognising Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara.

In recent years, three West African countries, in the Sahel region, have experienced coups d'état with a common denominator: the national and sovereign uprising against France, its former metropolis, still dominant in the economy, defense and international relations.

We spoke with Alex Anfruns, author of the book “Niger: another coup d'état… or the pan-African revolution?”

The main European states that colonized Africa, France and Great Britain, still want to maintain some kind of influence on the continent. The former has sheltered for decades several Rwandan war criminals involved in the genocide against Tutsis and moderate Hutus in 1994, and the latter maintains good relations with President Kagame despite the fact that his regime has been repeatedly accused of not respecting human rights.

The hottest month of January ever recorded in the history of humanity has passed, without governments around the world and the international media having given so much as a wink.

The Oxfam organization has just published a report on inequality in the world, “Inequality SA”, which has the subtitle “A huge concentration of corporate and monopolistic power is exacerbating inequality in the global economy.” A work that brings a lot of light in these days when the media is dedicated to reporting on the World Economic Forum or Davos Forum.

Historically, annihilating purposes are denied and hidden by their protagonists. The Young Turks, or the Nazis, for example, left hardly any declarative and printed evidence of their intentions against Armenians and Jews. Discretion prevailed.

The people who really didn't want to be there were the judges, because in fact it is the judges and the Court itself that are being judged. The fact of genocide is incontrovertible and has been clearly stated. But several of the judges are desperate to find a way to please the United States and Israel and avoid rebutting the current Zionist narrative, the adoption of which is necessary to keep the elite's feet comfortably under the table.
