BRICS leaders' gathering at the 16th summit ended with the adoption of a key document containing 134 resolutions, demonstrating the alliance's commitment to addressing pressing issues like security and economic inequality. It marks a shift toward a multipolar world, empowering developing economies and focusing on sustainable growth and inclusion.
The insights from Kazan paint an encouraging picture amid widespread global negativity, illustrating how BRICS countries have united to confront pressing issues. The resolutions reflect a detailed analysis of these issues and propose actionable solutions, indicating a notable shift in the existing global power dynamics, stresses Dr. Rasigan Maharajh, Chief Director of the Institute for Economic Research on Innovation at Tshwane University of Technology, South Africa, in a discussion with Sputnik Africa's correspondent.

"My response in terms of how to view all of the points raised in [BRICS 2024 Summit] Kazan is to be extremely positive [...]. Why I say or why I'm extremely positive is that the resolutions also give us a sense of the level of analysis done about the problems that we are confronted by. So in this, we also see elements where the constituent BRICS members have sought a commonality in their critique [...]. And as opposed to just leaving the criticism, they've also contributed in terms of shaping positive responses in redressing the challenges. In other words, turning what is a negative situation into a positive," Maharajh says.
