Modi Urges BRICS to Empower Global South in World Decisions
Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke at the BRICS summit.
He said developing countries should have more influence in important world decisions.
Modi described the current system as a pyramid.
In his view, powerful countries are at the top and make most decisions.
Countries at the bottom are affected by those decisions but have less power.
He said this “pyramid of privilege” should become a partnership platform.
Modi wants the Global South to help make global rules instead of only following them.
He also said BRICS is growing and working through agreement among its members.
