Brazil, African Countries Must Work Out Their Way in Global Governance, Says President
From February 17 to 18, the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa hosts the 37th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union (AU), as the continent grapples with conflicts, political crises, and regional tensions. Among those attending from outside the region was Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
Brazil and African countries must work out their way in global
governance, BRICS can help them to do so. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made such a statement at the opening of the 37th African Union Summit.
"The African struggle has much in common with the challenges faced by Brazilians. Of Brazil's 200 million people, almost half are descendants of Africans. We Africans and Brazilians must forge a path in this world order, to create new instruments of global governance," he said.
Lula da Silva emphasized that BRICS is such a platform that allows developing countries to assert themselves.
"The global south is becoming such a player whose opinion cannot be ignored," the Brazilian leader added.
Initially composed of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, BRICS recently expanded its membership with the invitation of five new countries, including two nations from the
African continent – Egypt and Ethiopia.
Recently, several African nations have expressed interest in joining or partnering with BRICS, with some submitting official applications for membership. The alliance of the world's emerging economies is committed to economic cooperation, development, and a multipolar world order in which all nations have an equal voice.
