More than 40 countries have expressed interested in joining the BRICS group of nations, South Africa’s top diplomat in charge of relations with the bloc said on Thursday.
Is that the same South African diplomant who said that there weren’t any missile attacks on Kyiv while they fled to a bomb shelter to protect themself against the missile attacks on Kyiv?

No.
The diplomat named in the article is Dr Anil Sooklal.
Your link is to a comment by Vincent Magwenya.
They don’t look anything alike, and they’re not even the same skin colour or ethnicity.
Dr Sooklal is in charge of South Africa’s BRICS stuff. Mr Magwenya is the spokesman for Cyril Ramaphosa.
It’s gonna be the BRICSAFHUBBKUGYYSRGKKKCVBJYEAAVVVV by then. Rolls right off the tongue.

Don’t let certain far right pundits hear that. Especially not, if it’s involving a bunch of brown people. They’ll spin some “black queers steal our children and economy” bullshit.
Heh. True.
It probably is going to provoke a fearful reaction in some quarters anyway, especially if they introduce their own currency.
The rest should spell out andmortar.
Highly recommend they start with a K country. Kenya? Kazakhstan?
I think the debate is still going on in Kenya but looks like Kazakhstan definitely wants to join.
Maybe they could drop the RIC at the same time
Not likely to happen. The I and C are by far the biggest players. Between them they have over 35.5% of the entire world population.
Yeah it’s a pipe dream. The population is stuck
