BRICS Expansion and Our Shift Toward Global South Sovereignty
Sputnik Africa
In this episode of the Eye of the Storm, Floyd Shivambu, President of the Afrika Mayibuye Movement, unpacks a major shift in the global order. We look at how the expansion of BRICS is accelerating the Global South’s drive for sovereignty and financial independence.
As tensions over US and Israel actions against Iran intensify, the conversation explores how the growing influence of BRICS is providing a roadmap for nations to reduce their reliance on Western-dominated institutions. This shift represents a strategic step toward newer frameworks for economic cooperation that challenge the long-standing status quo.How is the expansion of this bloc reshaping global financial structures, what does it mean for the future of the US dollar’s dominance, and can the Global South truly achieve strategic autonomy in an era of escalating conflict? Shivambu says yes: “The US is a collapsing empire, it will almost certainly collapse within our lifetimes.”Listen to this episode of the Eye of the Storm to understand how new alliances are forging a new path for the Global South and why this shift is fundamental to the changing world order.► Check out all the episodes of Eye of the Storm.► Listen to this podcast on all your favorite platforms: Apple Podcasts | Deezer | Spotify | Pocket Casts | Podcast Addict | Castbox | Afripods

BRICS Expansion and Our Shift Toward Global South Sovereignty
In this episode of the Eye of the Storm, Floyd Shivambu, President of the Afrika Mayibuye Movement, unpacks a major shift in the global order. We look at how the expansion of BRICS is accelerating the Global South’s drive for sovereignty and financial independence.
As tensions over US and Israel actions against Iran intensify, the conversation explores how the growing influence of BRICS is providing a roadmap for nations to reduce their reliance on Western-dominated institutions. This shift represents a strategic step toward newer frameworks for economic cooperation that challenge the long-standing status quo.
“What BRICS represents in the current conjuncture and politics is the politics of fairness, the politics of moving away from colonialism, and the politics of genuine engagement with all relevant partners. And it’s politics of meaningful infrastructure development,” Shivambu remarks.
How is the expansion of this bloc reshaping global financial structures, what does it mean for the future of the US dollar’s dominance, and can the Global South truly achieve strategic autonomy in an era of escalating conflict? Shivambu says yes: “The US is a collapsing empire, it will almost certainly collapse within our lifetimes.”
