South African President Cyril Ramaphosa held a two-day summit with Saudi Arabia on mostly economic matters.
At the conclusion of the summit, he confirmed the intent of Saudi Arabia to join the BRICS economic coalition, which should not come as a surprise given the previous statements by Saudi leader and Crown Prince Mohamed Bin Salman (MbS).
(MSM) Ramaphosa confirms Saudi Arabia wants to join Brics family. This was revealed by President Cyril Ramaphosa during his two-day state visit to the kingdom on Sunday.
“The Crown Prince (prime minister Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud) did express Saudi Arabia’s desire to be part of Brics and they are not the only country,” said Ramaphosa. He confirmed this on Sunday during an engagement with the media.
Brics held its first summit in 2009, with SA joining the following year. The bloc has generally been seen as an alternative to the dominance of the western economies.
“We did say that Brics having a summit next year under the chairship of South Africa in SA and the matter is going to be under consideration.
“A number of countries are making approaches to Brics members, and we have given them the same answer that it will be discussed by the Brics partners and thereafter a decision will be made.” (read more)
Since the outset of the Western Alliance sanctions against Russia, we have been predicting an increased geopolitical influence from the BRICS team. A global financial and economic cleaving is underway created by the western nations chasing ideological climate change energy policy, while the rest of the world remains pragmatic toward oil, coal and natural gas as energy resources.
We have been closely monitoring the signs of a global cleaving around the energy sector taking place. Essentially, western governments’ following the “Build Back Better” climate change agenda which stops using coal, oil and gas to power their economic engine, while the rest of the growing economic world continues using the more efficient and traditional forms of energy to power their economies.
(July 2022) […] “This accession, if Saudi joins it, will balance the world economic system, especially since the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the largest exporter of oil in the world, and it’s in the G20,” Hamed said. “If it happens, this will support any economic movement and development in the world trade and economy, and record remarkable progress in social and economic aspects as Saudi Arabia should have partnerships with every country in the world.” (read more)
That would essentially be the end of the petrodollar, and -in even more consequential terms- the end of the United States ability to use the weight of the international trade currency to manipulate foreign government. The global economic system would have an alternative. The fracturing of the world, created as an outcome of energy development, would be guaranteed.
Keep in mind, in early June Federal reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated, “rapid changes are taking place in the global monetary system that may affect the international role of the dollar.” {LINK}
The western alliance (yellow) would be chasing climate change energy policy to power their economies. The rest of the world (grey) would be using traditional and more efficient energy development. The global cleaving around energy use would be complete.
This is not some grand conspiracy, ‘out there‘ deep geopolitical possibility, or foreboding likelihood as an outcome of short-sighted western emotion. No, this is just a predictable outcome from western created events that pushed specific countries to a natural conclusion based on their best interests.
You can debate the motives of the western leaders who structured the sanctions against Russia, and whether they knew the outcome would happen as a consequence of their effort, but the outcome was never really in doubt. Personally, I believe this outcome is what the west intended. The people inside the World Economic Forum are not stupid – ideological, yes, but not stupid. They knew this global cleaving would happen.
For a deep dive on BRICS, as predicted by CTH, {SEE HERE}. The bottom line is – the 2022 punitive economic and financial sanctions by the western nations’ alliance against Russia was exactly the reason why BRICS assembled in the first place.
Multinational corporations in control of government are what the BRICS assembly foresaw when they first assembled during the Obama administration. When multinational corporations run the policy of western government, there is going to be a problem.
In the bigger picture, the BRICS assembly are essentially leaders who do not want corporations and multinational banks running their government. BRICS leaders want their government running their government; and yes, that means whatever form of government that exists in their nation, even if it is communist.
BRICS leaders are aligned as anti-corporatist. That doesn’t necessarily make those government leaders better stewards, it simply means they want to make the decisions, and they do not want corporations to become more powerful than they are. As a result, if you really boil it down to the common denominator, what you find is the BRICS group are the opposing element to the World Economic Forum assembly.
The BRICS team intend to create an alternative option for all the other nations. An alternative to the current western trade and financial platforms operated on the use of the dollar as a currency. Perhaps many nations will use both financial mechanisms depending on their need.
The objective of the BRICS group is simply to present an alternative trade mechanism that permits them to conduct business regardless of the opinion of the multinational corporations in the ‘western alliance.’
The BRICS team, especially if Saudi Arabia, Iran and Argentina are added creating BRICS+, would indeed be a counterbalance to the control of western trade and finance. This global cleaving is moving from a possibility to a likelihood. If Saudi Arabia joins BRICS the fracture becomes almost certain.
The State Visit to Saudi Arabia was about advancing diplomatic and political relations between our two countries, but it is the economic relations that underpinned the substance of our visit.#SAinSaudiArabia pic.twitter.com/zuVPODGy1c

BRICS and WEF: two wings of the global uniparty?
Shhhh!
I suspect China runs WEF roughly the way the Dems run our GOPe.
BRICS? No. BRICS are the ones who don’t want the WEF to wield that much power against them.
It doesn’t matter. They are all going down the Tube. Russia and China are getting ready for demographic collapse. Brazil is without fertilizer. Saudi Arabia cannot survive without US guarantees for their autonomy. South Africa is about to collapse because they are driving their technical classes out of the country. Maybe India has a future. But, without an infrastructure, it is not much of one.
South Africa brings nothing to the table except a begging bowl and marxism. They are controlled by whomever has the most amount of money to offer the ANC, the ANC is not anti-corporatist at all, without corporations and banks giving them handouts, the useless, weak and incompetent ramaphosa, who is a billionaire, would have and own nothing, same can be said for the pseudo black middle class in South Africa and the corrupt ANC who go broke every year without fail.
Alot of natural resources in that southern continent.
Don’t fool yourself thinking the south Africans have nothing to offer.
Why do you think the Chinese are building massive highways there.
Exactly.
The social/political dysfunction there is for China a positive, all the easier to manipulate and control.
The Chinese are building massive roadways there because they need Africa to become their bread bowl.
The Indians control much of SA now. Most of the white communists emigrated to NZ & Australia after they destroyed the country. Most of those communists were the first and second generation of immigrants from the 1930’s who were not from the white countries that traditionally had been in Africa like Joe Slovo’s Lithuania being an example. Slovo was the puppetmaster of the fraud Nelson Mandela a terrorist who sanctioned a department store bombing that killed numerous children and women
SA recently announcing significant reduction in oil production. Prices go up
SA recently announcing it will enter BRICS. prices go up (there is no such thing as an “efficient” major financial market disruption. (it is ALWAYS MORE EXPENSIVE_Noting: pay attention to nation states including the US announcing plans to shift to crypto currency..that too will make “money” more expensive..a different kind of inflation)
The US under the Biden Regime is hard blocked in a corner. It will take nothing short of a miracle for the United States to recover economically and slowly gain competitiveness in the energy and fintech markets EVEN IF THE ULTRA MAGA KING IS ELECTION.
BUT that is exactly what is required.
If there are no other reasons to vote for and support President Trump and his special PRO AMERICAN BUSINESS ECONOMIC POLICIES, take note that President Trump is the ONLY candidate who has proven bona fides, DESPITE ALL THE ODDS AGAINST SUCH SUCCESS.
I will say it again and again and again until I grow tired of experiencing WINNING:
President Trump is an enigma.
President Trump is the leader we do not deserve, but need.
The dark Knight…a warrior, a street fighter, who commands respects and represents all that is good and valuable about the American experience.
There are going to be many dark days ahead. Many. Many more arrows, more assaults and violence aimed at taking him out.
Remember, President Trump is NOT who they are after. THEY ARE AFTER YOU. THEY FEAR YOU AND WHAT YOU STAND FOR. THEY SEE YOUR FREEDOM AND LIBERTY TO VOTE AND PUT INTO POWER A MAN WHO CAN BREAK THEIR BACKS IN EXCHANGE FOR TRANSFERRING POWER BACK TO WHERE OUR CONSTITUTION AND HISTORY IS SO CLEAR: THE PEOPLE>
President Trump realizes this fundamental truth. It is what makes him both powerful and successful but also enemy number one to the deep dark secret police spy state.
I will vote For President Trump. I will do so, because I understand that he alone can wield the power of the Presidency with a capability that both protects my liberty and also expands my freedoms.
God Bless America
Preach it, Brother!
Agreed in full.
So well said!!
I agree, but,…
2016 can’t, and WILL NOT be a repeat of his first term.
WE, and HE need MAGA in Congress, to constantly disrupt and expose the Uniparty,..
And STRONG MAGA State Governments, to challenge and beat back Federal Govt overreach.
A top down AND bottom up attack on the GOPe, as well as the Swamp.
WE can still TAKE BACK AMERICA.
noted.
“If there are no other reasons to vote for and support President Trump and his special PRO AMERICAN BUSINESS ECONOMIC POLICIES, take note that President Trump is the ONLY candidate who has proven bona fides, DESPITE ALL THE ODDS AGAINST SUCH SUCCESS.”
The goal of global communism is to destroy the USA. This strategy moves them a long way toward that goal. My guess is this is a joint effort of the CCP and WEF.
That works especially if WEF is ultimately China directed, which I strongly suspect is so.
How does a commodities-based economy destroy the USA? The only ones who want the USA actually destroyed are the European colonial powers of Davos. Everyone else just wants the American empire off their backs and out of their business. America should join BRICS (or parts of it that secede) and it might flourish again.
China literally wants to colonize America.
They have no use for the people, they will take what they wish, this is a matter of record.
Throws interesting light on the tendency of the China Vaxx to kill young men, seeing as how China has a 50 million women deficit due to their brutal one-child policies, n’est-ce pas?
The arrogant Chinese Communists might think they want to do away with Americans, but, if they eliminate us where would they get innovative ideas to steal? From a beaten down, spied upon, fearful Chinese population that dares not stand up to tyranny? Lol.
IKR?
The BRICS team intend to create an alternative option for all the other nations. An alternative to the current western trade and financial platforms operated on the use of the dollar as a currency. Perhaps many nations will use both financial mechanisms depending on their need.
Until someone on “our” side makes a move that prompts if not forces BRICKS to isolate or abandon the WEFfers.
(I’m throwing the K in their to represent the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and I like where that acronym is going as I so despise the machinations of our despicable Derp State who merit a few BRICKS through their windshield at speed.)
BRICS (and particularly Putin) is making policy decisions based on the best interest of there people. When was the last time any decision was made in DC or Brussels that was in our best interest?
Surely you jest!
Was that ever their charter?
Climate change is a pretext. The actual policy is just pure, old world colonialism.
How does one spell Lebensraum in Chinese?
Nevermind: 栖息地
South Africa was once a First World, Christian western well run country. Now its a liberal marxist utopia which is similar to what the Democrat-marxists have done to many cities in America. I am not surprised it joined BRICS since China is to take over Africa. PDJT’s policies had us NOT needing Saudi Petroleum, though the Petro Dollar is problematic in many aspects.
When countries abandon/reject God and his commandments, destruction always occurs.
the great reset.. we cannot control it..
but we sure can exploit it to our own advantage..
the coming moment of the big crash/crisis..
will be the golden opportunity..
don’t go down with the sinking ship..
jettison her and be free men..
if they can install one.. we can install one..
the Republic of Texas needs a secession leader..
..breakaway and join the BRICS+..
If Texans can’t wrest control of their State Government away from the RINO, Uniparty hacks, like Abbott and Cornyn, how in the HELL do you think you are going to succeed?
Got a broken right arm, and your putting a cast on the LEFT arm; succession is treating a problem that doesn’t exist.
Taking control of the State R party, is where you start.
Neglect that step, and any MAGA Candidates will be undermined by the State party.
THEN advance A1, MAGA Candidates, in a coordinated SLATE of Candidates, for ALL State offices, and Congress too.
Succession isn’t likely, and gets you nowhere. Drive out the hacks, like Abbott and Cornyn.
Absolutely right, Dutchman. But, don’t forget, we need to drive out Cruz, too. He called the January 6ers, “terrorists.”
The word is “secession” not “succession.”
The government of the USA is an embarrassment to say the least. If the powers that be decide to take us out, I hope they remember that no all of us were in on this suicide mission.
Ramaphosa is an impressive speaker. First time hearing him.
Their despicable treatment of the WHITE farmers and land owners should preclude them from joining any damn thing.
I read a few days ago that the RSA government is full steam ahead with confiscating White farmer’s land without compensation. To give to people that can’t or won’t plant and harvest and will sit in the fertile dust with their begging bowls, their skinny kids lying in the dirt with vultures around them, crying for Whitey to feed them. F Africa. Let China feed their new serfs.
Like throwing a “ brick” threw the glass window of the WEF’s Build Back Better house.
That would essentially be the end of the petrodollar, and -in even more consequential terms- the end of the United States ability to use the weight of the international trade currency to manipulate foreign government.
Funny how there seems to be a blackout in the American news media on this monumental event.
As much as this is gonna hurt, I think it’s time for this to happen. Our country has become so corrupt that it shouldn’t be allowed to have that much power.
The Petro-dollar was literally the deal with the devil imo
The day after Biden left Afghanistan, Russia gteed Saudis protection. Now why would Russia need to gtee protection of a country US already gteed protection? See line 1 above.
Now compound that with having your precious resource tied to a foreign currency (petrodollar) which will hyperinflate in the near future. Yes, US dollar will hyper inflate when no longer reserve currency.
Saudis do not have a choice but to align themselves with more than US.
You will note there is no response by US against South Africa for negotiating on behalf off Russia and China.
Next is a BRICS currency.
And then what?
As usual the American government shoot Americans in the foot or in the back !
The entire world that exists outside the pathetic parasitic reality of Washington DC pinheads are laughing at the US AS THE CLOWN SHOW CONTINUES !
One more Biden win toward the total destruction of the United States.
