The New Candidate Countries For BRICS Expansion
The New Candidate Countries For BRICS Expansion - Silk Road Briefing
If accepted, the new proposed BRICS members would create an entity with a GDP 30% larger than the United States, over 50% of the global population and in control of 60% of global gas reserves. By Chris Devonshire-Ellis The Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov has stated that ‘over a...

a couple excerpts:
If accepted, the new proposed BRICS members would create an entity with a GDP 30% larger than the United States, over 50% of the global population and in control of 60% of global gas reserves.
In total, the BRICS grouping as it currently stands accounts for over 40% of the global population and nearly a quarter of the world’s GDP. The GDP figure is expected to double to 50% of global GDP by 2030. Expanding BRICS will immediately accelerate that process.

I'm getting to the point that believing anything from western media is a mistake.
Apparently, only Russia can commit war crimes?
I'm waiting for the book, and then the movie.
Meanwhile it's almost like what the US did right here forcing businesses to close and shutting down normal civilian activities for a fake plannedemic.
Would that be considered a war crime, or does war have to be declared? It sure felt like a war.

So he obviously has no fear of saying what he feels. That's freedom of speech. Perhaps he's mocking all the folks who say, "Putin Bad!"
Or did they kill/imprison this person after he went off camera?
Inquiring minds want to know.

It appears he is more free to speak his mind than some folks on this forum are.
Now that's a freaking joke!
I don't get it. We have free speech here? Where? Behind the Dairy Queen?
Amnesty International has actually taken a lot of flak for being Putin's useful idiot. One example:
Amnesty International risks being seen as Putin’s ‘useful idiot’
Report by human-rights body gave Russia a blank cheque to continue trying to justify atrocities committed in Ukraine

Re: Free Speech - show me where in America someone is getting jailed for political speech in public and we can compare apples to apples.

Would being 'canceled' be considered 'jailed'?
ALL the Frontline Doctors.
Jan 6 participants in DC.
If we are engaged in an intellectually honest conversation about an apples to apples comparison, we are talking about the government (not any private enterprise) threatening (and acting) on jailing folks for expressing opinions in public that are contrary to government edict. Note that this is about chilling political speech. Incitements to riots or violence is not an apple in this conversation.

An intellectually honest discussion would start with knowing that those jailed were not rioting, but peacefully protesting.
Anyone who has been following Jan 6 knows that it was a set up by the PTB to make it 'appear' otherwise.
Not sure where the thread drift started.
Are you referring to the "mostly peaceful" protests. Those weren't incitement to violence. They were violence. But mostly peaceful, so OK.
Were people arrested for making public statements against government edict? What were the statements they are being prosecuted for making? What government edict did they violate?
I posted an example of a Russian talk show host lamenting the fact that he was caught in a Catch-22 preventing him from making a public statement or face jail because the government prohibited speech for either option. Show me one example where something similar has occurred here in the USA.

That is the fly in the ointment isn't it...?
The pro-abortionists would prefer to use the term "clump of cells", as opposed to fetus. Because the word "fetus" conjers up too many baby-like images for people. They want it to be seen as being akin to a tumor.
